Düsseldorf is an independent city that is one of the major cities in North Rhine-Westphalia. As the state capital, it houses the state parliament and is an important location for the media world. The MedienHafen with its impressive and architecturally extraordinary buildings, cafés and restaurants makes this clear. The old town and the Königsallee are very popular with tourists and locals alike. The Rhine Tower is a landmark of the city of Düsseldorf. The Rhine bridge and promenade are a popular place to picnic or go for a walk.
Cochem is the smallest district town in Germany and is located in the state of Rhineland Palatinate. Cochem is located on the Moselle and is famous for its viticulture. The city offers a picturesque view of the vineyards. The Reichsburg, which acts as the city's landmark, can be seen from afar. The place is not only very popular with bowling clubs and families. The cobblestone old town offers a leisurely tour and invites you to linger by the fountain.
Numerous half-timbered houses adorn the town of Bernkastel directly on the Moselle. Above there is a castle with a restaurant and in the old town there are numerous small boutiques and shops. The Moselle invites you to an unforgettable boat trip, but also to go kayaking or canoeing. Bernkastel is known for its ideal location on the Moselle and for the quaint old town. Together with Kues it forms a twin town, left and right of the banks of the Moselle, with numerous restaurants and bars.

Trier impresses with its buildings from Roman times - above all the well-preserved Porta Nigra. But the city's churches are also worth visiting. The oldest city in Germany was founded around the year 16 BC. Founded by the Romans under Emperor Augustus. Charlemagne made the city an archbishopric. In hardly any other German city are the legacies of the Romans so abundant as in Trier. You can even drink it in the form of wine. The wine terraces on the Moselle and Saar valleys look back on 2000 years of history.
