Düsseldorf is a city in western Germany known for its fashion industry and art scene. It is divided by the River Rhine, with its Altstadt (Old Town) on the east bank and modern commercial areas to the west. In Altstadt, the Church of Saint Lambertus and the Schlossturm (Castle Tower) dates from the 13th century. Streets like Königsallee and Schadowstrasse are full of boutiques.

I only had 1 day, so decided to visit the old part. The city deserves about 3 days.

On the way back I found there was a FLIXBUS bus that went to Antwerp and passed in Eindhoven and got off very close to the central station.
It was much quieter around and it took 1:40 minutes. Besides it is cheaper.

Aachen was once a Roman spa town and still attracts tourists to see its century-old cathedral and drink from the healing waters of Elisenbrunnen.Elisenbrunnen was built between 1822 and 1827, it is considered a symbol of the city.The Imperial Cathedral, located in the historic center, began to be built in 796.The 74-metre tower was added to the building in 1884, and in 1978 it entered the Unesco list of Germany’s first World Heritage Site.

The city hall is located in the main square of the city (Marktplatz), which has other old buildings and an international newspaper museum, with more than 200,000 newspapers from all over the world.

But we came here to go to Lindt’s store.The store is chocolate heaven.Right at the entrance is an explosion of options, I had no idea the variety of options Lindt had.Around the world, we see only a few of the most popular options.

Besides the options, the prices are incredible.

It was a chocolate shopping party.
