Holidays to Düsseldorf

Elegant, cosmopolitan and effortlessly stylish, Düsseldorf is the fashion and shopping capital of the Rhine. The luxurious Königsallee boulevard sits just a short stroll from the historic Altstadt, whose 260 bars and restaurants have earned it the nickname “the longest bar in the world”, best enjoyed over a glass of the local “Alt” beer. Along the river you’ll find the striking modern architecture of the MedienHafen, more than 26 museums and 100 galleries, and the panoramic Rhine Tower. With its riverside promenades, world-class culture and famous February Carnival, there is always a reason to visit Düsseldorf.

From the Königsallee, Germany’s most luxurious shopping boulevard, it’s just a stone’s throw to the historical Altstadt (Old Town) with its 260 bars and restaurants. The narrow lanes of the so-called “longest bar in the world” are pulsating with life. Take the time to sample the local “Alt” beer and traditional Rhineland specialities.

Enjoy peaceful walks along the Rhine promenade, explore the breathtaking architecture of the MedienHafen (media harbour) or relax in one of the cosy cafés and bars along Germany’s biggest river. Musicians and actors inspire their audiences at the Tonhalle (concert hall) and the Deutsche Oper am Rhein (German Opera on the Rhine), while Museum Kunstpalast and the Art Collection of North Rhine-Westphalia are popular for their remarkable exhibitions and collections.

Carnival, Jazz Rally, the Biggest Fun Fair on the Rhine, Japan Day and Christmas Markets – there is always a reason to travel to Düsseldorf!
