Helau! Düsseldorf walks best along the Rhine. The promenade runs above the traffic, buried in a tunnel since the nineties, from the Tonhalle past the Altstadt to the Rheinturm and the crooked Gehry buildings of the Medienhafen. The Rhine Promenade asks for all of it.
A few streets inland, The Longest Bar in the World takes you down the Bolkerstraße, the Kurze Straße and the other Altstadt lanes where one pub follows the next, and Altbier Round past the five Hausbrauereien. Then stroll Down the Kö, both sides of the canal, and head out to the villages the city swallowed, from Kaiserswerth to Benrath: every one a Dörp to collect.
Düsseldorf’s own achievements
Every city in Every Street has badges only it has. These are Düsseldorf’s.
Down the Kö
Walk the Königsallee end to end, on both sides of the Kö-Graben, from the Corneliusplatz to the Graf-Adolf-Platz.
The Rhine Promenade
Walk the promenade above the Rhine embankment tunnel, from the Joseph-Beuys-Ufer by the Tonhalle along the Rathausufer and Mannesmannufer, and the Rheinwerft down by the water.
The Longest Bar in the World
Walk the Altstadt lanes where one pub follows the next: Bolkerstraße, Kurze Straße, Flinger Straße, Andreasstraße, Ratinger Straße, Hunsrückenstraße, Mertensgasse and Berger Straße.
Kamp, Busch and Kothen
Walk the streets named after the old Lower Rhine field names: Kamp (field), Busch (thicket), Kothen (cottage), Benden (meadow), Broich (marsh) and Pesch (pasture).
Auf'm Platt
Seven streets keep their dialect in the name: Auf'm Hennekamp, Auf'm Rott, Auf'm Tetelberg and four more. Walk them all.
Across the Rhine
Cross the Theodor-Heuss-Brücke on foot to the left bank of the Rhine, to Niederkassel and Lörick.
All Ten Boroughs
Like every city, Düsseldorf also has Bridge Hunter, Dörp Collector, Sights and Altbier Round.
