Trip to Stuttgart (3) Mercedes-Benz Museum

Having had my yummy lunch, I kept going to my next destination: Mercedes-Benz Museum. At first, I was wondering whether it is necessary for me to visit this museum on the same day after experiencing Porsche’s stunning beauty. However, Mercedes-Benz has different styles and I am glad I made my trip there.


“I thought I know Benz enough, actually, I know nothing about it until I visited the museum”. 

It is not surprising that I thought I know Benz a lot before the visiting as I have seen many of them more than Porsches on TV ads, magazines, streets, including private-owned, company cars and even taxis. However, They are just a small part of Benz’s masterpieces. 
The first legend: 1885 Daimler riding car
1889 Motorized quadricycle-the wire-wheel car
1894 Benz Victoria 


1896 Daimler Vis-à-Vis belt-driven car
1889 1.5 hp Daimler two-cylinder engine
A spaceship-like elevator caught my eyes immediately after entering the museum. I walked directly to take the elevator without any hesitation, and I was right. The best way to go through its history and all the stories of Mercedes-Benz is from the top level down to the ground floor and finished at the shop store.




1902 Mercedes-Simplex 40 PS

Same to Porsche, Benz is named by its inventor: Carl Benz. The museum gives both nostalgic and modern technologic vibes. By displaying more than 160 vehicles of all Benz types, ranging from the oldest automobiles in the past to legendary racing cars and ‘mobility of the future’ under research.
Benz designs aeroplane engines as well

I am so glad I have been here to witness the glory legend. However, if you ask me  Porsche and Benz, which one is superior to the other, I will say, they cannot be mentioned in the same breath! In terms of function and distinctiveness, you definitely can put them on the best list.

吃過美味的午餐後,我繼續前往下一個目的地:Mercedes-Benz 博物館。起初,我想知道是否有必要在體驗保時捷令人驚豔的美麗後的同一天參觀這個博物館。然而,Mercedes-Benz 有不同的風格,我很高興我去那裡旅行。
我以為我知道Benz夠多,在我參觀博物館之前,但實際上,我對此一無所知”。

我以為我在參觀博物館館之前對Benz了解很多,這並不是很驚訝的事,因為我在電視廣告,雜誌,街道,包括私人擁有的,公司的汽車甚至出租車上都看到了許多Benz, Porsches更多。然而,它們只是Benz傑作的一小部分。

進入博物館後,一艘類似宇宙飛船的電梯立即引起了我的注意。我毫不猶豫地直接走去搭電梯,我是對的。參觀Mercedes-Benz的歷史及所有故事的最佳方式就是從頂層到底層,最後在商店結尾。

與保時捷相同,Mercedes-Benz的發明者是Carl Benz。博物館既有懷舊又有現代技術的氛圍。透過展示所有Mercedes-Benz類型的160多輛車,包括從過去最古老的汽車到傳奇的賽車和正在研究中的未來車。

我很高興我來到這裡見證了榮耀的傳說。但是,如果你問我保時捷或奔馳哪一個優於另一個,我會說,它們不能相提並論, 以性能及獨特性來說,您絕對可以將它們列入最佳名.
