Some of you might know, in Sept we went for our holiday in France. And one of the place we stayed was in Dijon. Both of us liked that place a lot. Unlike Paris, its gives a more "homely" feel and is less crowded and noisy.
We spent about 4 days there and had new adventures we never did before. Like going on a hot air balloon. I'll try to put up a video of that.
But what impresses us on our first day in Dijon are its walking streets. The shops are interesting and everything looked so attractive. You can spent the whole day just walking, shopping, window shopping or sit by a sidewalk cafe and people watch.
These streets are for pedestrians and no vehicles are allow. EXCEPT the free shuttle buses and probably some registered vehicles. So how do the town council solve the problem of preventing vehicles from travelling these walking streets but at the same time allow the buses and pedestrians to use the lanes?
They have something which I called the "flexible barriers". Watch this video to find out more.

We were so amazed.
