Dusseldorf
 Dusseldorf ... Ruhr Area) the economic center of Western Germany. Düsseldorf is located on the River Rhine and it is one of the main centers of the densely populated Rhine-Ruhr area.Newest Review: ... briefcase! My first impression is that, apart from the Altstadt, you would not visit Dusseldorf for its architectural excellence. The city is real hotch-potch. I realise that it must have suffered extensive destruction during the war but it does seem like no control was exercised over the reconstruction. In many places the original buildings survive and give an impression of how the city ... more ... must have looked in the past. However, in between these are buildings of all styles, some clearly built just after the war and many of more recent vintage. Sadly the overall look is something of a mess with no distinct style or theme.

Actually I wasn't. I was in fact in Dusseldorf for a week long conference. It was my first ever visit to Dusseldorf and so I was keen to get to see as much of it as I could in the brief time available to me when not attending conference sessions. Regrettably that wasn't as much as I would have liked but at least I did get to explore on three occasions. So my review, as you will gather, is based on just this brief acquaintance.

The passenger terminal at the airport is very modern, well accommodated and very efficient, as you would expect of the ... Read the complete review

It was a hot and sticky July afternoon when I received the news through from my boss. I was to be posted to Düsseldorf. This wasn’t really the news I had been expecting and my only immediate answer was ‘Why Düsseldorf?’ They came up with the all the usual answers, I speak German, it is a new challenge etc. All the same it was with a very heavy heart that I packed my bags and belongings and left Cairo for Düsseldorf (I mean if you had the choice what would you choose Cairo or Düsseldorf? Exactly!). In my mind I had images of a totally concrete no-name city in the middle of Germany’s heavy industry region, a sort of German version of Rotherham or ... Read the complete review
Dusseldorf: The Longest Bar in Germany! (751 words)

I visited Dusseldorf for a week in October and had a fantastic time. It is one of the two cities I have visited in Germany (the other being Cologne) and of the two I preferred Dusseldorf. We arrived in Dusseldorf on a Sunday. Walking through the city centre, it became clear that sunday shopping is not a concept that has taken off in Germany. "Where were all the people?" we asked ourselves - the place was deserted. We soon found out when we arrived in the "Altstadt" (Old Town) - A delightful part of the city, also known as Germany's Longest Bar, due to the enormous amount of pubs and bars in the area. It seemed that the world and his ... Read the complete review
