Burgplatz was another area which had succumbed to the madness of Karnevale during my recent visit. We passed through en route to the Aldstadt and had intentions to see some of the museums/churches nearby. Alas, most were closed due to the celebrations.

Located in the Altstadt ( Old Town ) and on the riverfront is Burgplatz, one of my favourite square's in Dusseldorf.
We are here over the Christmas period and the famous Burgplatz Christmas Market is in full swing ,lots of stalls all beautifully decked out ,the wonderful ferris wheel in operation, great views of the city from here ,the views across the river are superb, the architecture around this square are a delight and there's plenty of pubs and bars ,it's just a great square to check out if you're planning a holiday to Dusseldorf.

Walking around in DUS you'll end up here ...
Altstadt, Rheinpromenade etc lead you here.
Nice "old" place... with restaurants and "beer places" 🤗
Good picture taking is also possible.

Wasn't blown away by the square but it is worth an explore and a wander around for a few minutes. Probably a nice place to sit with a drink.

Absolutely a 'must do' when the Winter Market opens! Great Gulwein! Lots of great foods to munch on! So crowded!

One of the most popular tourist destinations during the Christmas period is Burgplatz .
The whole area is vibrant, you have the amazing Christmas market on the square, so busy, so full of Christmas cheer ,the awesome ferris wheel looks amazing especially at night, all around the square are lots of pubs,bars and restaurants, it's a seriously busy district and square and well worth checking out if your planning a trip to this city on the River Rhine.
