The
main
shopping
street
in
Düsseldorf.
The
(Königsallee)
is
an
urban
boulevard
in
Düsseldorf,
state
capital
of
North
Rhine-Westphalia,
Germany.
The
Königsallee
is
noted
for
both
the
landscaped
canal
that
runs
along
its
center,
as
well
as
for
the
fashion
showrooms
and
luxury
retail
stores
located
along
its
sides.
The
Königsallee
is
some
1
km
long
and
lies
in
the
district
of
Stadtmitte.
It
stretches
from
Hofgarten,
Düsseldorf's
main
park,
to
Carl-Theodor-Straße
and
Luisenstraße
on
its
Southern
end.
At
Hofgarten,
the
Königsallee
reaches
onto
Landskrone,
a
peninsula
of
the
park's
lake.
Adjacent
to
Königsallee
are
the
Altstadt,
Düsseldorf's
old
quarter,
and
Schadowstraße,
Germany's
shopping
street
with
the
highest
sales
revenues.
The
canal
is
some
31
m
wide
and
fed
by
water
from
the
Düssel,
from
which
the
city
got
its
name.
The
entire
boulevard
is
some
80
metres
(260
ft)
wide
and
may
be
perceived
as
an
urban
esplanade.
The
Eastern
side
of
Königsallee
is
entirely
commercial,
with
numerous
upmarket
flagship
stores
and
block-internal
shopping
arcades
leading
to
and
from
the
boulevard.
Most
of
the
Western
side
is
quieter,
given
that
it
predominantly
has
offices,
bank
branches
and
hotels.
Cafés
and
restaurants
are
located
on
both
sides.
