A different approach to city history: in Düsseldorf it becomes obvious along the Rhine.

On a stroll on the beautiful promenade along the Rhine, which links the Old Town and "Medienhafen", you'll hear tales about the river and the city's 700-year history during which it developed from a fishing village into the modern capital of North Rhine-Westphalia.
