Düsseldorf is famous for its Carnival. The scale of the celebrations is grand, comparable to that of Cologne and Metz. Here, from November 11 to February is what Heine calls the "fifth season" of joy. During this time, various evening parties, dances and costume parties are often held.

One Thursday in February is the so-called Women’s Carnival. That night, women, whether married or unmarried, regardless of age, all dressed up in fancy clothes, painted their faces with colorful paint, and then swayed in groups through the city to participate in various carnival activities, dancing, singing and drinking happily. His wildness is no less than that of men. The fourth day after that is called "Rose Monday". This day is the climax of the carnival, with a parade of costumes and floats, and the joyful procession is several kilometers long. There were huge crowds of spectators, and tens of thousands of kilograms of candies were thrown to the spectators from the float alone. On this day, many out-of-town guests, even foreign tourists from Britain, France, and Belgium, made a special trip to see the grand event. Television also broadcast the live broadcast of the joy of all people to the whole country.
