Duisburg is located at the junction of the Rhine and Ruhr rivers in western Germany. Duisburg's harbour is the largest inland port in the world, with 21 docks in total. The Innenhafen, or Inner Harbor, used to be the centre of the city's industry but today is a centre for dining and nightlife. Make a point to stroll along the marina to check out the many kinds of boats, relax in one of the green spaces, and of course, stop in one of the many restaurants for a delicious dinner.
In the Meiderich district, make sure to check out the Landschaftspark Duisburg Nord. This industrial steelworks complex had gone disused since 1985 before its reinvention into a public park. The unique complex includes trails along what used to be sewer systems, a viewing tower made from the blast furnace, and even a scuba diving centre in what originally was a gasometer. Kaiserberg, on the other hand, is a more traditional park that is home to both a zoo and a botanical garden.
