    (Translated by Google) The Burgplatz becomes an event location. Something takes place here for every occasion. Burgplatz becomes an obstacle course for all runners and cyclists. (Original) Der Burgplatz wird zur Eventlocation. Zu jedem Anlass findet hier etwas statt. Für alle Läufer und Radfahrer wird der Burgplatz zum Hindernislauf.

    Nice place on the city center old town in Dusseldorf. You have a lot of shops and restaurants around. All must see things on Dusseldorf are really close to IT. You have amazing view for the rhein river you can also catch the boat and drink a cold beer in Kassamaten with the view of the Rhein and cargo shops. Enjoy 🤘🤘🤘

    Great location to relax. Was at the winter market and had a blast. Walked around with family and friends and seems like a fun night life. Plenty of places to eat and not overly crowded. Will definitely be back to this area even when the market is gone.

    Sehr gute Entscheidung der Stadt Düsseldorf vor vielen Jahren, dass man die Rheinuferstraße in einen Tunnel verbannt und darüber eine schöne Promenade angelegt hat. Am Wochenende und bei schönem Wetter üblicherweise sehr gut besucht, aber immer eine Reise wert. Auch in der Vorweihnachtszeit sehr stimmungsvoll beleuchtet.

    Good place to start if you plan to walk around Düsseldorf. You can walk along the Rhine River. Good view of Düsseldorf bridge and Tower which are at a walking distance.

    Great square in Altstadt in front of what was once a castle. Located by Düsseldorf's Rhine embankment promenade, it allows lovely walks alongside the river, gives you great views as well as easy access to the old town restaurants and bars. beautiful Ferris Wheel lit up at night + heartwarming Christmas Market with delicious finger food and “glühwein”. Loved it!!

    I have visited this area over the last couple of years, and it always has a pleasant atmosphere, with bright neon 'ferris wheel' and stands selling Gluhwein (Hot Mulled Wine). This year, for some reason, it was very quiet and probably better to visit late November when the Christmas markets are fully open.

    Der Turm ist der Rest des alten abgebrannten Schlosses, im Turm ist das Schifffahrtsmuseum untergebracht. In der Kanzel des Turms gibt es ein Kaffee mit einer schönen Aussicht zum Rhein. Hier mündet die nördliche Düssel in den Rhein. Am Turm ist ein Treffpunkt mit Sitzstufen zum Rhein. Der Platz selbst wird teilweiße genutzt für ein Riesenrad, im Sommer für die Gastronomie.

    Burgplatz, nestled alongside the Rheinuferpromenade in Düsseldorf, is a charming oasis of history and tranquility. The riverside location provides a serene ambiance, making it an ideal spot for a leisurely stroll or picnicking. The historic buildings and lush greenery enhance the picturesque setting, offering a delightful escape from the bustle of the city while still being conveniently located.

    Visiting the Christmas market was magical – the air filled with festive cheer, the aroma of mulled wine, and the vibrant stalls adorned with twinkling lights. As night fell, the giant Ferris wheel lit up in a dazzling array of colors, offering a breathtaking view of the festive spectacle below.

    Beeindruckend wie sehr Apotheken bei den Medien in den Hintergrund rutschen. Aber was machen Krankenhäuser und Ärzte wenn Sie den Patienten keine dringend benötigten Medikament mehr verordnen können.?OP's ohne Narkose und Scherzmittel?

    (Translated by Google) A really nice and big place where it feels like all of Düsseldorf comes together. Take a leisurely stroll along the promenade or look for a quiet spot and watch the goings-on. Maybe something to eat or drink, there are numerous offers nearby. Now at Corona time, there are a lot of things to consider and the Rhine stairs are locked as well as sitting on the benches at certain times (Mon-Fri: 3 p.m. to 1 a.m. and Sat & Sun: 10 a.m. to 1 a.m.). Still a place full of discoveries. (Original) Ein richtig schöner und großer Platz, bei dem gefühlt ganz Düsseldorf zusammenkommt. Gemütlich die Promenade entlang oder entspannt vor Ort einen ruhigen Platz suchen und das Treiben beobachten. Dabei vllt was kleines zu essen oder zu trinken, es gibt zahlreiche Angebote in der Nähe. Jetzt zur Coronazeit, gibt es viele Dinge zu beachten und die Rheintreppen sind gesperrt sowie das Sitzen auf den Bänken zu bestimmten Zeiten (Mo-Fr: 15 bis 01 Uhr und Sa&So: 10 bis 01 Uhr). Dennoch ein Platz voller Entdeckungen.
