It's a relief to be in a city where cars are kept in their place, where car lanes in the ring road are even being eliminated to make way for more trolley tracks. Of course no car lanes would be the ideal, and the other day I read that in the 18th century the city's "ancient walls were torn down to make way for a promenade." There's an idea! (The train station, which is across the ring road (former promenade, former wall) from the old inner city, bills itself as a "promenade" but they mean "mall" — although, come to think of it, that's what "mall" used to mean.)
