Saturday Flea Market in Dusseldorf

As I said in my previous post that the Dusseldorf is the known for its cosmopolitan character and sophisticated living. Dusseldorf known for its pub area known as Alstad, Carnival, 1 Km long fashion street known as Königsallee, Rhein river side. But some places are not so much discussed and Dusseldorf Flea market is one of several. Flea market is always a point to attraction for me as sometime you can get things at very low price
Dusseldorf Saturday Flea Market is no different from the other Flea markets in Europe. There are few picture I took when I visited flea market during my dusseldorf stay.
