I have read the very small number of entries for Düsseldorf. I will be traveling to the city to meet up with a friend living there in August. I would like to arrive ready to see the culture and do not want to depend only on Köln [Cologne].
Therefore my question is, Are there some Through the Back Door places that I should pay attention to when visiting around Düsseldorf? I appreciate any assistance you might offer. Thank you in advance.

Have you already noted Monschau and Wuppertal? Aachen?
Do not underestimate Cologne: Many posts incorrectly say the only thing you need to see is the Dom! Cologne is also special because so much of it is walkable from the HBF.

Hi Tim,
Thank you for your feedback. I will continue my reading and search.
