📍 Destination Overview
Düsseldorf, capital of North Rhine-Westphalia, is a leading German fashion city on the Rhine. Königsallee is its luxurious shopping boulevard beside a canal; the Old Town holds the world's longest bar street, perfect for Altbier. The Rhine Tower gives panoramic views, Benrath Palace is baroque, and it thrives as a trade-fair hub with a major Japanese community and a lively carnival.
