I passed by there on my "City Garden Walk" on September 4, 2025. I saw several lakes. One of them was probably Lake Bugasee.

Kiefernstraße in the Düsseldorf district of Flingern-Süd is a street that became known for squatting in the 1980s. In the mid-1980s, the street was also associated with the Red Army Faction (RAF). Today, the former squatters live in regular tenancies.

The Botanical Garden is located in the south of Düsseldorf and belongs to the Heinrich Heine University. A well-maintained outdoor area offers the opportunity to stroll and admire plants, shrubs, and trees. The focal point of the garden is the geodesic dome, in which wonderful plants from all over the world thrive. A geodesic dome consists of a lattice shell composed of triangles. It looks gigantic! The Botanical Garden was established in 1973 and now has more than 6,000 different species. Admission is free – see the opening hours online. Picnics are recommended; there are lovely spots to enjoy your stay with the family.

It's always worth a visit to see the constantly maintained Botanical Garden! Interesting plants, shrubs, and trees (6,000 species) in every season. Plenty of comfortable seating to enjoy your picnic. Admission is free – donations are welcome. The Botanical Garden was founded in 1973 and is located in the south of Düsseldorf at the HHU. Not only the outdoor area is worth seeing, but also the geodesic dome, the orangery, and the South Africa House. There is an annual program and the popular plant market. The ring-necked parakeets, also called "Kö parrots," have felt very comfortable for years and are friendly residents of the large garden. These wild parrots are native to Asia and Africa. It is said that the birds probably escaped from the Cologne Zoo.

The Düssel Divide at Höherhof is an important hydrological point where the Düssel River divides into two branches. This divide has historical and technical significance and has shaped the landscape and water flow for centuries. Originally created in the Middle Ages, the river division was regulated by human interventions such as weirs and dams to prevent flooding, supply water to mills, and protect agricultural land. Today, the water flow is controlled by stable bank reinforcements and weirs that regulate water levels and provide relief during floods. Ecologically, the division creates diverse habitats: Different flow velocities and water depths allow many aquatic plants, fish, and amphibians to find suitable habitats. This diversity is particularly valuable in an urban environment. Today, the Düssel Divide is both a technical structure and a scenic attraction. It demonstrates how historical water management and modern technology are combined to channel water safely and in a natural way. Visitors can experience this place on hikes or bike tours.

The water playground on Tannenhofweg is a popular meeting place for families and children in southern Düsseldorf. It offers a variety of water features and paddling areas that provide cooling on warm days and playfully stimulate children's curiosity. Surrounded by shady trees, seating invites parents and carers to linger. The natural design, with sandy areas and small streams, creates a relaxed atmosphere and encourages free play and experimentation. The playground is easily accessible and ideal for a break during a hike or bike ride.
