Traffic is created by cars, even in city centers. After we've been living with cars for over a hundred years, and most cities are car-centric, some people are slowly starting to realize that cars don't actually belong in an urban space or a city center. And they are not only led to this realization by terrible numbers from the chronicle and the smog indicator. Cars are simply no longer a convenient means of transportation. In London, for example, today, traffic moves slower than a bicycle. So let's take a look at which cities are on the way to making the car "persona non grata".
The city's most famous culinary specialty - the well-known hamburger made famous in America by German emigrants - is not the best advertisement for the excellent culinary offer of this old Hanseatic city. In a city as ethnically mixed as Hamburg, where more than 250,000 foreigners are officially registered, i.e. almost as many as the entire population of Ljubljana, foreigners make up almost 15 percent of the people.
The Free Hanseatic City of Hamburg, as it is officially called, is Germany's largest port and also Germany's greenest city. As much as two-thirds of the city consists of parks, canals of the Elbe river surrounded by tree-lined avenues, and lakes, which gives Hamburg an air of freshness and homeliness.
