Beneath Dusseldorf’s business-like façade lies a vibrant city of culture, fashion and shopping. Over 260 bars lie within the compact Altstadt district, the city’s traditional old town which was rebuilt to its original splendour after extensive WWII damage. Dusseldorf’s modern wonders are perhaps best experienced in the contemporary Medienhafen district, which is filled with trendy restaurants, cosmopolitan hotels, and funky nightspots.
