Discover the "longest bar in the world" - and much more. Düsseldorf's Altstadt (Old Town) is packed with more than 260 bars, restaurants, cafés, and breweries, along with everything else that adds to the flair of a historically grown city. Join an expert guide on a stroll through the pictureesque lanes, take a look behind the scenes and prepare to make surprising discoveries. This is history come to life. Find out, among other things, why the Gothic St. Lambertus church has a twisted tower, how The Rider statue of popular elector Jan Wellem came about, where Heinrich Heine was born, and how tailor Wibbel gained fame. The Burgplatz (square) with the Schlossturm (palace tower) holds great charm. From here, it's a stone's throw to the Rhine embankment promenade- offering a stunning view of Düsseldorf's skyline and the Oberkassel Rhine banks.Winter season (01.01.2013-14.03.2013)

The Europa-Park fairy tale goes on in 2013… Be there when Europa-Park reopens, on 23rd March 2013, in all its glory! Rapunzel, Doctor Know-all and the Golden Goose found a new home in the enchanted forest at Europa-Park. Quaint little houses at the entrance of the village, a magical ring of bells and an enchanted tower high above the rooftops - Those who believe in the magic of the fairytales will feel like being part of the Grimm Brothers stories.

A tour of the MedienHafen will show you that Düsseldorf is developing at a fiercely dynamic rate. As recently as some twenty years ago, the area was dominated primarily by warehouses- today, the district is in a state of permanent change. Home to numerous media and advertising companies, the MedienHafen os one of the liveliest places in Düsseldorf.
Part of the tour's attraction is also the various examples of outstanding architecture: the twisted buildings designed by the American Frank O.Gehry are as spectacular as the open design of the Landtag (state parliament) is symbolic, while the Rhine Tower is literally a cut above the rest.
