Near Koln i'd like to know Dusseldorf and Bonn. Are these towns differents from Koln?

Bonn is a lot smaller but it has more pre-WW2 architecture left so IMO it's a bit more beautiful. Düsseldorf is similar to Cologne in the sense that it's also on the Rhine and it has a bit of an old town left.

This is part of the old town:

There are some narrow streets in the area but a lot of buildings were just rebuilt in the bland postwar style.
