The old town
The Old Town is placed right in the heart of the city centre. You can find 260 bars, restaurants, cafés, breweries and clubs strung together on the world-famous “Bolkerstreet”. Here you can enjoy any culinary delight you like, you can just have a coffee or even a cocktail and have a blast with your friends and party till late at night.
No matter which season takes place, no matter if summer or winter – you should definitely try a sip of the “Uerige Altbier”. It’s a tradition to meet right in front of the oldest brewery in Düsseldorf and enjoy the very special and familiar atmosphere and drink a toast to each other.
If you are rather interested in culture und knowledge, you should not miss the popular historical sightseeing spots. Visit the Gothic St. Lambertus church and find out why it has a twisted tower; walk around the “Burgplatz” (big square) and experience the great charm with the located “Schlossturm” (palace tower); go to the town hall and take a selfie with the statue of the elector Jan-Wellem.
After a long day out and many experiences during city exploration, there are several spots to have a cool chill out and to calm down. The Rhine promenade offers a stunning view of Düsseldorfs skyline and the Oberkassel (district on the left Rhine side) Rhine banks. The so called “Kasematten” is a long stretched waterside promenade with dozen bistros and bars.
Not the right spot to have a big party, but to enjoy the sundowner and let the day fade away in a relaxed atmosphere.
Especially in the summertime the Rhine is a gathering place for any type of people: students, business men, families and friends meet there for a barbecue on the Rhine banks or just have a cool drink at the big stairway right at the promenade.
