Düsseldorf is Germany at its finest. The city has a thriving economy, savvy political and administrative leadership as well as low unemployment. Friendly people and the excellent infrastructure are just two of the many factors why Düsseldorf is a major centre for international business and first-rate trade fairs. It is also an important player within the Rhine Ruhr area, Europe’s most populated metropolitan region after Greater London.

 

Things to Do

Numerous museums, many focussed on the local speciality of the arts, a full calender of events and excellent, diverse cuisines in Düsseldorf vie for the attention of locals, expats and tourists alike.
