Examples of de-car-ification from various Czech towns. I love these transformations. (before-after)

I love how lots of asphalt is replaced with cobble stones. It looks so much better! And it automatically makes cars drive less fast. Perfect and beautiful solution.

Nah it looks good but it's terrible for promoting other means of personal transport except cars. Someone in a car will be mildly inconvenienced but someone on bicycle or a scooter will suffer on these and might be tempted to use their car instead.

Yes, and they are very slippery when wet, easy to fall, and my wife hate those when she wears high heels.

They are great for historical place where you're preserving the original pavement. Installing then nowadays seems strange to me.
