A while ago I started the "Shop Windows of..." series with the thought that no matter the country or part of the globe you end up exploring in this life, shop windows will always look different depending on the culture, traditions, souvenirs and specific products that make a place more famous than the others.
Based on a similar concept, I thought about starting a new "series" that will be simply named "Cars of...". In both cases, the suspension dots will be replaced by a new country or city explored where I managed to find unique shop windows or cars.
The first one I thought of beginning the cars series with, is no one else but Prague, which represents my most recent trip, taking place in September 2023.
While Venice is well known for its gondola rides that make it stand out in front of the others, Prague managed to catch my attention with these incredible-looking vehicles mostly destined for tourists.
Neither I nor the girls I was traveling with managed to rent one as we all thought that it's better to explore what Prague has to offer by walking all day long, but it was impossible not to run into one of these everywhere we were going.
Obviously, the most popular place where you can meet them is in and around the center of the city, but we did see quite a few in some less popular places which still made us turn our heads while watching them cross by.
While the specific cars of Prague transpose you into a different century which ended a while ago, we didn't miss the chance to meet some less retro vehicles which created a great parallel between the past and the future.
I know the electric and hybrid world is yet at the beginning, but based on how these vehicles look and seeing so many brands of cars that focus more and more on this field, I think the future is not that far anymore.
Some more vehicles that stole my heart while in Prague, were the Mustang models which I used to see pretty often in my country while I lived in the capital. But since I moved to a completely different part of Romania, those models became rarer and rarer to notice going down the streets.
So based on these thoughts and considering it a fairly nice and classy model of car to be driven by both women and men, I managed to capture three such vehicles.
And last but not least, there was also this cute Volkswagen that sent my mind home having my dad very passionate about fishing. This was generated by the stickers the car had on it, but I have no clue if they are somehow related or not to a business in this field as I met it quite randomly on the street.
Also, I know the 2nd picture is not a car but rather a gem on two wheels, but I've only seen Indian motorcycles in games so I thought it's a pretty good excuse to attach it to this post as well, perhaps not being frequently met in Europe.
This is the first post of the "Cars of..." series, but as soon as I write down more posts with this purpose, I'll make sure to edit the posts so they are all linked to each other and easier to find.
Until then, down below you can see a list with some other places we explored while in Prague:
- The "John Lennon" Wall
- The Nustle Bridge also known as "The Suicide Bridge" of Prague
- Street Art in Prague
- The Dancing House
more coming soon...
