Well, so many places to see in Germany(for me). Really depends how you know about Germany. For me, I like South Germany
If you do not speak German, tough to travel into small cities...Also, do not expect you can see many things than in a city that you mentioned above
How many days that you can spend? Do you want to travel by long distance train...?
Near Duesseldorf: Leverkusen - football team; Kerpen - Michael Schumacher. If you are not fans, no need to go...
Hameln: famous for the folk tale of The Pied Piper of Hameln
