Art, commerce, and Rhenish cheerfulness - a cosmopolitan, sophisticated, yet cozy town invites you to feel comfortable.
The state capital of North Rhine-Westphalia is now a tourist destination in the shadow of the media city of Cologne (only thirty minutes away), with its mighty cathedral towering over the main railway station. Those who, however, think of Düsseldorf merely as the home of the Toten Hosen and a colorless industrial city are doing the city an injustice - it is an ideal destination for a weekend escape. For Düsseldorf is punk attitude, fashion center, art castle, architectural playground, chichi mecca and binge paradise all in one - and all of this in such a small space that you can dispense with the well-developed local rail network.
