Düsseldorf is located between Essen and Cologne in Germany and is known for its booming fashion industry. Arts, music, and culture thrive in this welcoming and multicultural destination.
Altstaft, the city's old town, fills its narrow streets with relaxed cafes and chic bars. If you're lucky enough to visit in the winter, Düsseldorf is home to one of Germany's best Christmas markets, hosted at Marktplatz.
To experience Düsseldorf's culture, you can opt to watch a performance in an opera or a theatre. Two of the top theaters are the Düsseldorfer Schauspielhaus and Roncalli’s Apollo Variete. Then, when the opera makes you feel sufficiently posh, you'll be ready to enter the pink, opulent palace of Schloss Benrath.
While nearly every corner in Düsseldorf is filled with shops to catch your eye, the most exclusive and luxury shops congregate on one street: Königsallee. However, if you prefer digging through thrift shops and poking into local boutiques, Lorettostrasse might be more your style.
Düsseldorf is home to one of the largest airports in the area, with flights to many international destinations. To view the German countryside from the ground, take a Deutsche Bahn train or a coach offered by several companies that run routes throughout Europe.

One of the largest cities in the state of Lower Saxony, Osnabrück is an industrial city home to numerous automobile, paper, and steel companies. The city's pride is the Altstadt quarter, which has been meticulously reconstructed after suffering catastrophic damage during WWII. As a result, the quarter features many medieval buildings that retain their original splendour. The most notable is the Historic City Hall, featuring impressive Gothic architecture situated in a charming square. Also check out the historic St. Peter's Cathedral, a late-Romanesque cathedral founded in the 11th century.
For a focus on more natural splendor, the Botanischer Garten der Universität Osnabrück is a great place to start. Explore the garden's landscaped paths and glasshouse for palms until dinnertime. Then seek out some local specialties at Göttinger feldkieker, Ammerländer Schinken, or Lüneburger Heidschnucke.
Osnabrück offers tons of travel options, so it's easy to include a quick stop in the city during a tour of Germany. Nearby cities, including Bremen and Hanover are accessible on intercity coaches. Several train lines, including Deutsche Bahn and FlixTrain, also offer service throughout Germany, plus routes to farther destinations in Europe.
