In the Middle Ages boys begged for money by doing cartwheels. The "Radschläger" is still a Düsseldorfer symbol which you can buy as a marzipan-"Radschläger" or find as a figure on a fountain (at the Burgplatz). Since 1971 there's a "Radschläger"-competion every year in summer on the Königsalle on which also girls can take part.
Since 1981 also Düsseldorfs English partnercity Reading owns a "Radschläger"-Monument.
Altstadt (old part of downtown Düsseldorf)
The Düsseldorf nightlife concentrates mainly around the pedestrianised old part of the city. Bolkerstrasse with its many bars, breweries, cafes, nightclubs, restaurants and fast-food outlets is also called the longest bar in the world. One look at the picture will tell you why. The favourite passtime in Düsseldorf is either to sit outside a pub in Bolkerstrasse and check out everybody walking past, or to walk past the people sitting outside a pub in Bolkerstrasse and get yourself checked out.
A fancy chain of bars that serve variations of Currywurst with Chips, including the 'mayonaise of the month' A normal Currywurst with normal Chips and extra Aioli sauce and the view of the Gehry Buildings please!
Just behind the Stadtmuseum is one of Düsseldorf's many pretty little parks. The Spee's Graben was spectacularly transformed one day of my visit by a sudden and unexpected flurry of snow, allowing me to snap the photograph shown here. The gardens themselves actually form part of the fortifications of the "Marie Amalie" Bastion, and were once a ditch, hence the name "graben" which means ditch in German. The ditch was transformed into a park in 1834 by Maximilan Friedrich Weyhe, but part of the old fortifications remain in the form of a wall, which can be seen on the right of the photograph.
The Neuer Zollhof (New Customshouse) is such a fantastically outlandish piece of office architecture it has to be my favourite set of buildings in the whole city, and one of my all-time favourites. The imaginative work by world famous American architect Frank O. Gehry (Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao) is just so photogenic, and fits in perfectly with the other works of forward thinking architecture in the Media Harbour. The buildings themselves, three office towers even more crooked than the spire of St. Lambertus in Düsseldorf's Alte Stadt, are made of three different materials, with the central aluminium plated one being the most striking.
