Dusseldorf is one of the most attractive and upmarket cities in Germany. Partly this is because of the international makeup of the city. Many firms, in particular Japanese firms have made Dusseldorf their European base, and this toghther with the international Messe(trading fair)provides a very international outlook. Not being able to speak german is not a disadvantage as much as in other german cities, with most people in shops, resturants and civil officals speaking at least passable english. Possibly the two greatest attractions in dusseldorf are the Altstadt(old city) and the Konigssalle, which is one of the premier shopping streets worldwide. The altstadt is a large pedestrian area containing shops, resturants and bars, and is known as the longest bar in the world, with the area covering more than three square kilometers. The konigsalle is a wonderful place to window shop, unless you are extremely wealthy and willing to part with large sums of money. The transport in dusseldorf is also excellent with trams running between the centre and the messe every 15 minutes. There is also a train servive from the airport which lasts about 10 mins or taking a taxi is also relatively cheap, about 25 dm(8 pounds) to the centre of town.
