Rotterdam -  No, this is not the other side of the car! It is a different car. On the rear window hangs a prayer chain (tasbih). This Islamic symbol helps Muslims recite the 99 names of God. It is similar with the rosary of the catholic world and the Akshamala (or simply called Mala) of the Buddhists. Location: Rotterdam Crooswijk Photo taken by Erika Blikman April 12th 2010.
