We have visited Düsseldorf for the first time as the starting point of our summer travel 2023.
This travel guide is based on our personal experience and contains the places we have visited.
The main information about the city:
It is the capital city of North Rhine-Westphalia, the most populous state of Germany. It has 629,047 inhabitants (December 31, 2022), and it is the second largest city in the state (after Cologne). Düsseldorf is a trade fair city and the headquarters of many listed companies, including the DAX-listed Henkel group. It has the highest turnover for auditing, management consulting and clothing fashion as well as an important financial and stock exchange center. It has also a leading location for the art trade in Germany. The city is also home to 22 universities.

Our advise is to stay 2-3 days.

- The central street of Altstadt (Bolkerstraße) is to avoid as well.
