The Rheinuferpromenade is a leafy urban walk on the east riverbank that runs between Dusseldorf Aldstadt (Old Town) and the rejuvenated Media Harbour. The harbour is home to an eclectic mix of architecture, including the quirky Gehry Buildings, which are the city’s newest landmark, and a clutch of upmarket restaurants and bars. Zip up the 70’s TV tower, the Rheinturm, for a panoramic view of the city, and as you head back, stop for coffee (above ground) and culture (underground) at the Kunst im Tunnel contemporary art gallery.

Stroll along the avenue of sycamores back to the Aldstadt, where there are numerous small cafes and bars at the water’s edge. Or indulge in some utterly wonderful local beer (altbier) and a traditional German lunch at the Brauerei im Goldenen Ring, an atmospheric old brew pub.
