  2. Königstrasse

    The focus of Stuttgart's commercial life is the pedestrians-only Königstrasse, a spotlessly clean and conspicuously well-heeled shopping precinct that stretches for a bit over 1km southwestward from the Hauptbahnhof.

In the middle stands the König Wilhelm Jubilee Column, flanked by fountains representing the eight rivers of Baden-Württemberg.
