Positioned along the western banks of the Rhine River in Germany lies Düsseldorf, a city harmonizing timeless allure with contemporary sophistication. As the capital of North Rhine-Westphalia, the city relishes in its temperate climate characterized by balmy summers and fairly mild winters, making it a year-round destination. Split by the Rhine, Düsseldorf features its historic Altstadt (Old Town) on the east bank and the present-day business district on the west.

Distinguished for its fashion sector, vibrant arts scene, and pulsating electronic music, Düsseldorf harmoniously blends an upscale urban environment with the warmth and hospitality characteristic of Rhineland. Residents of this city, proudly referred to as Düsseldorfers, take immense pride in their city's cleanliness, greenery, and a lively cultural landscape. An amusing rivalry with neighbouring Cologne adds an interesting dynamic to the local culture, particularly during the Carnival season.

Düsseldorf's unique appeal lies in its brilliant integration of past and present. The Altstadt, often referred to as "The Longest Bar in the World" owing to its 300+ pubs and breweries, famously serves the city's traditional brew called Altbier. The modern MedienHafen district, on the other hand, features a display of contemporary architecture by the famous Frank Gehry. Then there's the iconic Königsallee, locally referred to as "Kö," recognized as one of Europe's most prestigious shopping destinations.

Make sure to experience the panoramic city views from the Rhine Tower, enjoy a sunset walk along the Rhine Promenade, or immerse yourself in Japanese culture at the city's Little Tokyo, which is the largest Japanese community in Europe, outside Japan.
