VLADIVOSTOK, RUSSIA: “Green corner” (“Zelyony ugol”) car market

This place had been named “Green corner” long before the first Japanese car appeared in Primorye. Since 1950s the plot of land had belonged to a forestry of the Pacific Fleet. In 1993 the area passed from the forestry hands to tenant auto dealers. Nowadays, the largest Russian market of second hand cars is situated here. At times of the highest demand the amount of cars offered here exceeded 17, 000. A car expert can wander across the “Zelyonka” market in a couple of hours. A novice can get lost there for a whole week.
