"Hydra: A Car-Free Greek Oasis Where Time Stands Still"
Hydra, a Greek island in the Aegean Sea, stands out for its car-free streets and reliance on horse-drawn transportation. With a ban on motorized vehicles (except for essential services), the island's population of 2,500 locals gets around using mules, donkeys, and small horses. This intentional embrace of traditional transportation pays homage to Hydra's rich heritage and commitment to sustainable living. The absence of cars has contributed to the island's tranquility, drawing in creatives and inspiring artists and designers. Hydra's unique atmosphere, natural beauty, and car-free streets make it a magical place to work and visit.
