Local Area

Wonderful tradition: the flea market on Aachener Platz in Düsseldorf-Bilk has been a cultural asset of the Rhine metropolis for 44 years. In the 80s the artist Joseph Beuys and the later Federal Minister of the Interior Otto Schily fought for the popular meeting place - meanwhile the market has achieved cult status and is also known beyond the city limits.

More than 8,000 Japanese live in the metropolis on the Rhine. This is the largest Japanese community in Europe. And it has the talent. The “Little Tokyo” district is called pulsating and it is true: Wherever the eye can see, we come across (for us) the exotic, the delicious, the beautiful, the colorful, the filigree. You will find the unique Japanese atmosphere between the main train station and the city center along Immermannstrasse and Klosterstrasse.

Düsseldorf - this city always goes the extra mile. It goes without saying that not one, not two, but three of the coolest beach locations along the Rhine await you here. The great city beaches are absolute musts for visitors to Düsseldorf. The Rhine has an enormous attraction anyway - these three locations have made the charm of the giant their own and designed great - almost holiday-ready - opportunities to linger.

Discover the Rheinuferpromenade – a perfect spot for relaxing, strolling, or jogging. Enjoy views of the Rhine, explore local shops and attractions like the historic Castle Tower and impressive bridges. Indulge in charming restaurants and cafés along the promenade or embark on a leisurely boat tour. In winter, the promenade transforms into a magical Christmas wonderland, while summer offers plenty of space to soak up the sun. A must-visit for anyone in Düsseldorf!

The Carlsplatz market is a little gem in the heart of Düsseldorf. Here you will find an abundance of local produce, fresh fruit and vegetables, fragrant flowers and delicious delicacies. The market is perfect for a relaxed stroll as you sample your way through the stalls selling smoothies, freshly brewed coffee and handmade baked goods. With its friendly vendors and welcoming atmosphere, Carlsplatz is a must-visit on any visit to Düsseldorf!
