The huge Ferris Wheel dominates the heart of the Altstadt (old town) as of now. Enjoy amazing views from high above historic and modern rooftops as well as the majestic river Rhine.

The first incredible International Dance Weeks performance commences in nearby Neuss on Sunday. And local expats can view movies in several languages again this week.

Amazing Dusseldorf is the expat guide of choice for Düsseldorf that features hundreds of specially selected articles about life in the state capital of NRW. Enjoy.

The "Wheel of Vision" is an impressive structure placed on the Burgplatz next to both the Rhine promenade and the old town (Altstadt).
