Germany's low-key industrial city, known as the "hometown of cars"

Stuttgart is a famous city in southern Germany, located in the Rhine Rift Valley of Baden-Württemberg state. It is adjacent to the edge of the Black Forest and has rich vegetation, deep valleys, and excellent environment. Stuttgart is the sixth largest city in Germany and the political, economic, cultural, and administrative center of Baden-Württemberg state. Compared to major German cities like Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, and Frankfurt, Stuttgart is not particularly well-known, but car enthusiasts may know that it is a globally renowned automotive city and the birthplace of Porsche, as well as the location of Mercedes-Benz headquarters. In Germany, there is a saying that "cars have many fathers, but only one hometown". Since Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach manufactured the world's first lightweight and fast gasoline engine, Stuttgart's solid position in the automotive industry has been established. It is truly the "hometown of cars". Here, not only are world-famous cars produced, but it also has a long history of automotive industry. After 1885, Stuttgart became a shining new star in the world's automotive industry, giving birth to many luxury car brands and enjoying the reputation of being the "cradle of the automobile". Stuttgart has also witnessed mankind's relentless pursuit of "speed". As a famous industrial city in Germany, Stuttgart is not only home to automobile manufacturing, but also highly developed in industries such as electronics, machinery, precision instruments, textiles, and food. In addition, it is also a globally renowned center for publishing, with many world-famous corporate headquarters located in Stuttgart. Tracing the development history of Stuttgart, it was a fortress as early as the 13th century and was once the capital of the new Duchy of Württemberg. The city has a long history, profound culture, and talented people. The great philosopher Hegel was born here. As a German industrial city, Stuttgart does not have the heavy pollution of an imagined industrial city, but has a beautiful urban environment, clean streets, fresh air, a relaxed and comfortable living atmosphere, and a wealthy and harmonious population, exuding a romantic life atmosphere everywhere. I strolled through the Palace Square in the middle of King Street in Stuttgart, and saw the green grass and fragrant flowers on the square. Some tourists and citizens were sitting on benches, while others were lying on the grass, chatting, reading, daydreaming, sleeping, and resting. Compared with the hustle and bustle of the big city, the free, peaceful pace of life in Stuttgart is enviable. On the Palace Square, many young couples walk hand in hand, making others envious. These handsome men and beautiful women sit on the ground or stroll hand in hand, showing their affection for each other, as if the air is filled with a romantic atmosphere. . Goethe once praised the Palace Square in Stuttgart as "noble, free and spacious".
