Fun on the Rhine

MORE than 690 years ago, a shooting club in the Rhineland began celebrating its patron saint's day. Today, the event – #Düsseldorf's #FunFair – is one of the biggest outdoor summer parties in #Germany. The 10-day event (July15-24) attracts almost four million visitors.

It combines the German festival staples – beer tents with live music, sausage, sauerkraut, apple cake, and ginger bread with state-of-the-art rides, marching bands, parades, and fireworks.

It happens on the meadows by Rhine River across from the city's centre, and is reachable by foot, ferries, and public transport.
