F - Fly, Fiacre, Fiakier

Warsaw, Poland view map

Fly or hackney cab, in Polish fiakier or dorozka.
They are always waiting for tourists at the Royal Castle Square and on the Old Town Market Square.
It's an old tradition to travel through Warsaw Old Town streets, listening to a steady clatter of horse shoes, forgetting about everyday haste.
