A World War II bunker converted into a green hotel, bar and events space has become Hamburg's newest tourist landmark after opening to the public in July. Located in Hamburg's nightlife hub of St. Pauli, the anti-aircraft bunker is one the large concrete fortresses that can still be seen in this port city and across Germany and into which citizens were evacuated during 1940s air raids. Long out of use, the large flak tower used to shoot down enemy planes has now been raised by five storeys from 38 metres to 58 metres and relandscaped with a living exterior of plants over the past few years.

The most popular summer drink these days might still be the Aperol Spritz, but recently there have been claims online suggesting that colourings contained in the aperitif are toxic and carcinogenic. The good news is that wee checked out this claim and found that it is misleading. The concerns relate to Aperol, one of the brands of the Campari Group and an Italian liqueur used as an aperitif or a mixer in cocktails. You make an Aperol Spritz by mixing it with Prosecco and mineral water, and these days, you can also find drinks similar to Aperol on offer at supermarkets under their own brands. A...

Raus aus den Räumen, rauf auf die Terrasse, den Balkon oder in den Garten. In der warmen Jahreszeit werden sie für manche beinahe zum zweiten Wohnzimmer – und zunehmend auch so ausgestattet. «Outdoor-Möbel werden immer mehr wie Wohnzimmer-Möbel», sagt Katharina Schwarze, Senior Editor beim Fachmagazin Architectural Digest Germany. «Das ist ein Bereich, in dem in den letzten paar Jahren extrem viel passiert ist und sich viele neue Materialien etabliert haben, sodass Outdoor-Möbel immer komfortabler werden und analog zum Wohnzimmer draußen funktionieren.» Doch wie sehen sie eigentlich aus, die O...

I’m not often a big fan of coupe-styled SUVs. For me, practicality reigns supreme and while these angular models – like the Audi Q3 Sportback, for example – might look a little snazzier, they often come at the expense of outright usefulness. So it’s going to be an interesting six months as this new addition to the fleet – the BMW iX2 – aims to convince me otherwise. It is, after all, a more sleeky-styled version of the iX1 which, in my opinion, is already a good-looking car and a reasonably practical one to boot. As is the most popular option within many of BMW’s model ranges, this iX2 is fini...

The heat is back on in "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F," the fourth installment in the "Beverly Hills Cop" franchise and the first in 30 years, which essentially works as an audience-friendly remake of the 1984 original. "Axel F" brings back the characters, songs and story beats of the first film, which made Eddie Murphy a box office star and pioneered the action comedy genre. The new film doesn't do anything revolutionary but it gets by on its familiarity, like seeing an old friend and reminiscing about the old days over a couple of beers. Murphy is back cracking wise as Detroit cop Axel Foley, st...

The popular weight-loss jabs Ozempic and Wegovy have been linked to an eye condition that can cause blindness, according to a new study. People with diabetes prescribed semaglutide (brand names Wegovy and Ozempic) were more than four times more likely to be diagnosed with a condition called non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). Meanwhile, people who were overweight or obese prescribed the drugs were more than seven times as likely to develop the condition as those on other weight-loss medicines. NAION, which is uncommon, occurs from a lack of sufficient blood flow to the op...
