There is more than immediately meets the eye on walking through the busy thoroughfare of Königstrasse. Behind the veil of busy shopping, vibrant bars and traffic is a city with some respectable attractions. From a striking whitewashed library to car museums that even those uninterested in vehicles would find entertaining, Stuttgart has something for everyone. Besides the edifices, lies an abundance of greenery and vantage points of the city to scale. Yet what I love most is how it avoids any artificial element, apparent in many popular global cities.
