    Must see if you are in this city. On on side of the canal, there is historical architecture to admire and on the other side you can check out many designer brands that are available for shopping enthusiasts. If the weather is nice, you can take a stroll along the water and enjoy the scenery.

    If you enjoy modern and classic super cars then this is a great way to kill some time with no admission fee.

    A garage/club for owners and sellers of these cars, it is not a true museum, but rather a fun exploration and you will see many cars worth a few million euros.

    Grab a beer and lunch with a very unique view.

    Rheinuferpromenade is a wonderful waterfront promenade that brings you into the wonderful Altstadt onto the equality beautiful Burgplatz, home to the most beautiful Christmas market in Dusseldorf, lots of stalls all beautifully decked out for Christmas period, along the promenade are all manner of bars and the views are outstanding across the River Rhein.
    Great looking buildings along the promenade, Schlossturn is a wonderful historic tower ,all in all a great promenade to check out if you're planning a holiday to Dusseldorf.

    We were lucky with the weather and went up the Rheinturm in glorious sunshine. It felt like we could see forever but the horizon was a little misty. Clever angled windows give great 360 views especially across the Rhein as is meanders through the city. Nice cafe, not expensive and probably good for 30-45 mins - express lifts are fun too.

    From the bars of the Ratingerstrasse in the north to Carlsplatz Market in the south, the 'old' centre of Dusseldorf is a large pedestrian zone with shops, restaurants, and squares. Although the old centre was almost totally destroyed in WWII, there are still some old and reconstructed buildings.

    Nice on a good weather day, you can see it in about 1.5 hours, some animals you may feed and pet, some others you can't. Bring apples if you can as the animals like them better than the food for them that you can buy there. Very good with smaller kids as there are a couple of playgrounds.
    Oh, by the way, it's free.

    This is a nice area to take a stroll in. The buildings are quirky and well worth a look at. It was December when we went so cold but you can see that there is also a place in the river where you can take a swim in the summer.

    Without a doubt my favorite spot in Düsseldorf!. The palace and its gardens is like a fairy tale!. Its pink colour is unqiue. Magnificient French baroque style very well conserved. If you are into birdwatching this is the place to go. Not only you have the natural museaum on the East side of the palace, but its gardens feels like you are in the middle of the forest, and it’s home to many different breeds of birds. It also leads to the Rhein river stunning view. If you are looking for somewhere to have a brunch, or and afteenoon coffee, you have a lovely coffee place on the West side of the palace, with super nice staff. Last but not least! during Christmas the place is just super charming! enchanting!

    This is a partially covered (famers) market with a mix of fresh produce and cafés. It's open during the day and definitely worth a visit, especially around lunch time. It can be very busy on Saturday so you might have to wait for a table in one of the cafés.

    Was at Euro 2024 in Germany supporting Scotland, and because my wife is Ukrainian, and I have made many friends in Ukraine over the year, I got myself tickets for Slovakia v Ukraine in Dusseldorf.

    I have visited stadiums across Germany over the previous week, and was looking forward to this visit.

    Nice stadium, but did not leave same impact on me as Dortmund did, and the Scotland fans really added to the atmosphere in Munich and Cologne, but being in with the Ukraine fans, they really did make it a good atmosphere.

    Pretty far out from the centre of Dusseldorf, and not helped that it was raining on the day, but was able to get a tram out to the stadium, and a shuttle bus back, which got me to the stadium and back in no time.

    Hope to attend again one day, and is a good modern stadium.

    Past this great looking building as we were crossing over the bridge over to Oberkassel, viewed it before and it still impresses me.
    A great looking building, constructed in 1926 ,it was originally a planetarium, the largest such building in the world ,during the 1970's it was converted into a concert hall ,its a very popular concert hall in Dusseldorf, its capacity is 2500 ,I love the look of this building, its dome the most distinctive feature of the building, all in all its a great building to view and well worth checking out if you're near Ehrenhof by the bridge.
