Düsseldorf

D üsseldorf is a beautiful city that shouldn’t be missed. Small enough that it can be explored over a weekend, it is also big enough for you to want to return, because there is plenty more to see. On the right bank of the Rhine, with a population of around 600,000, the capital of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia is perhaps better known to you as the home- town of Heinrich Heine, whose book The Lorelei is known at least to an extent by an- yone from Serbia who had better than a‘D’ in their Serbian studies. Düsseldorf was razed to the ground during World War II, but today is again a large German hub of trade, industry and fashion, and the city with the best stand- ard of living in the country. You have to start your weekend visit in the city’s Old Town (Altstadt), which boasts more than 300 pubs and clubs located in

Sledeći put ne propustite toranj na Rajni Next time don’t miss the Rhine Tower

the area of just a few streets, and which is therefore known as the“longest bar in the world”. Of course, it is quite logical that here you will drink ‘old beer’ (altbier). When you tire of wandering the pictur- esque Old Town and crave fresh air, head to the banks of the Rhine, where there’s a promenade that’s positioned in such a way that it is basked in sunshine all day. A bicy- cle, an electric scooter, a book on the steps of Burgplatz, lunch in one of the many res- taurants... every option is good. You’ll agree that it’s all nice, but how can you take a trip without shopping? And if shopping’s what you crave, you should know that you’re in an excellent place. Düs- seldorf has its so-called Royal Alley (König- sallee), which is said to be better than Paris’s Champs-Élysées. All of the world’s premi- um brands are there: Tiany, Chanel, Guc- ci, Prada, Burberry, to name just a few. For many it merely provides an opportunity to

check out window displays, but if you’re planning to nd something special the you can rest assured that you will nd it along this kilometre-long street that’s nicknamed “Kö” by locals. And to conclude, head to Düsseldorf’s “most instagramable place”. You’re familiar with those green tree-lined avenues, right? Well, those relate to The Hofgarten, Germa- ny’s rst ever public park, which was de- signed right here and became the proto- type for all German parks. And that’s quite enough for one week- end, because next time you’ll have to visit the Rhine Tower, then the Kunstpalast Art Museum, the city’s Japanese Quarter, and much, much more... 
