Every haute couture…read moreand fashion name brand is here, whether it's Huge Boss, Mont Blanc, Tiffany, Versace, Prada, Hermès, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Georgio Armani and the like. Düsseldorf isn't Milan or Paris or New York, but there's money here to be spent for big money on everything from fur coats, clothing, electronics, luggage to jewelry and fragrance. Königsallee is literally "King's Avenue" and it runs for 1000 meters with a lovely landscaped canal between the two sides. Check out the Tritonenbrunnen where it crosses Theodor-Körner-Straße.

Nice christmas tree in the middle of the Dortmund Christmas market…read more There's not much to say about it. It's a huge tree! Actually, it's not really a tree. It's a giant cone shaped metal skeleton covered with hundreds of branches. It is quite pretty, especially at night when it's lit up. I don't understand why some of the German reviews give it 1 or 2 stars. What's not to like about a christmas tree?
