I think this is much bigger than most pedestrian zones in German city centers (I live in Berlin and can't think off the top of my head of a large pedestrian zone, although I know Munich and Vienna have them).
- Arnt 11y agoI suppose it depends on your perspective. If you permit cars to drive on 1km of road, that's short, but if you prohibit cars from 1km, maybe that kilometer is long. The biggest one in Munich is two intersecting streets, each almost 1km long if you measure generously, and some 50-200m stretches of neighbouring streets. By property value the area is vast ;)
- olifante 11y agoYeah, it's really strange. All other medium to large German cities have sizeable commercial pedestrian zones, but Berlin has very few. The only ones I know inside Berlin are the shopping street Wilmersdorferstraße in Charlottenburg and the area from Alexanderplatz to Rathausstraße. There's also the Alt Spandau pedestrian zone as well as parts of Alt Tegel, but I don't think those belong to Berlin proper.
