The Königsallee is an urban boulevard in Düsseldorf, state capital of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
The Königsallee is noted for both the landscaped canal that runs along its center, as well as for the fashion showrooms and luxury retail stores located along its sides.
Nicknamed ‘Kö’ by the locals, the Königsallee is by far Germany’s busiest, upscale shopping street.
The canal is some 31 m wide and fed by water from the Düssel, from which the city got its name. The entire boulevard is some 80 metres wide and may be perceived as an urban esplanade.
The Eastern side of Königsallee is entirely commercial, with numerous upmarket flagship stores and block-internal shopping arcades leading to and from the boulevard.
Most of the Western side is quieter, given that it predominantly has offices, bank branches and hotels. Cafés and restaurants are located on both sides.
