Dusseldorf is just 25 miles north of Cologne so we deicided to take a short side trip to take a look. Unfortunately, we didn't research the city before we got there so we didn't have a specific destination. However, we did take a nice stroll around the altstadt (old city) and enjoyed the view along the Rhine River. Afterwards we decided to take in a few towns on one of Germany's many framework roads: Dillenburg, Herborn and Wetzlar. Since most of the large, famous cities in Germany were destroyed during the war they do not have original old-style structures like some of these smaller towns - they are a delight to visit. See the pictures of Dusseldorf here, and 1/2 timber towns here.
