Dusseldorf Holidays

Known as “the longest bar in the world,” Düsseldorf’s Old Town is packed with over 250 pubs and bars. Don’t miss a taste of Altbier, the city’s traditional dark beer. By day, the cobbled streets invite you to explore boutique shops, historic churches, and quirky museums. Come evening, the area transforms into a vibrant nightlife hub buzzing with laughter, music, and clinking glasses.

Düsseldorf is a major centre for contemporary art. The K20 and K21 museums showcase everything from 20th-century classics to bold modern installations. Wander through rooms filled with works by Picasso, Kandinsky, and Warhol, then marvel at immersive exhibits that challenge your perspective. Even the buildings themselves are architectural gems, blending history with cutting-edge design.

Start with a glass of Altbier, brewed locally and traditionally served in small 200ml glasses. Pair it with Rheinischer Sauerbraten (marinated beef) or Himmel un Ääd—a comforting local dish made from mashed potatoes, apples, and black pudding. For something lighter, try regional specialities like Halver Hahn, a rye roll with cheese and mustard. The city also has a strong Japanese influence, especially in the Immermannstraße area, where you’ll find top-notch ramen and sushi spots.
