Spain. Public Transportation

Using public transport in Europe and particularly in Spain — a pleasure. Of course, a little expensive, but dry and comfortable. I am glad forethought routes when between two arbitrary points can be reached with a minimum number of transplants. For this we are even ready to forgive the trip "Metro + bus" is a taxi through half of the city at home.

Of course you can walk and walk.

1

We even strongly recommend it! But then the world would not appear this article, and we very much wanted to talk about public, private and rented trucks in Spain.

In Spain, many good roads.

2

So if your budget allows, take on a rental car. Well, or buy if you are budget allows.

3

But there is one "but." You probably guessed it — a problem with parking.

4

However, if you open category "A" — you still.

5

His iron horse can bind to any column. It seems that law enforcement and tow guards do not pay attention to it.

6

But if the wife flatly refuses to wear a helmet and a child's eye twitches of your ride, then back to the car. What other problems can arise?

7

Anticipating your question, no, it's not parkuvalasya blonde girl. A middle-aged man with a beard and belly, we are convinced specifically. Just Spaniards are not too concerned for his and other people's property, unlike us. From scratches and dents on the consumables they do not fall into hysterics do not call "cat" and not cause traffic police.

8

Very often people parked "to knock" or "to touch" about someone's car (it can be even your car). Insurers understand that in such a state of things there is nothing to catch just stopped insure bumpers. If you still want to keep my bumper, then place the car or on the spacious underground parking.

9

When we are talking about vehicles, you should always remember the taxi. Legal Spanish taxi drivers easily recognizable in every city in which its uniform coloring. In Valencia, taxis — white:

10

In Barcelona black and yellow taxi. All taxis have meters, checker "123" or Taxi. Spanish taxi drivers do not listen to chanson, not versed in politics and in his spare time playing chess.

11

Proceed to environmental trasportu species, among which is the greenest… bike! If this report was about India, we would not recommend you ride a bike — it is dangerous to health. But we are in Spain, where almost every town bike route is:

12

In some places they are so broad that they try to leave the car:

13

You can rent a bike at private stores:

14

Or use municipal rental stations. They are scattered throughout the city, but need a special card:

15

In Valencia 270 such stations. Card per year is 18 €, the first 30 minutes — free following 30 minutes 0,50 €, every next hour — 1 €. Card weekly cost € 10 while minutely tariff increases twice.

16

Next in environmental performance probably go tram. The fare is 1.5 €. Tickets can be bought at the bus stop in the machine.

17

Metro. Progress here went far ahead on the scoreboard showing now is not how many minutes as the train went, and how many will be next.

18

To open the door wagon, you press the button. Do not forget about it, otherwise you be awkward moment will stand before the closed door and look helpless to seek help passengers wagon. The same button can be on trams and buses.

19

To open the door from the inside, too, sometimes need something to push or pull.

20

Cars, arranged on a "snake" because people are distributed proportionally. There is no such that one car there where apples fall, but otherwise collect alms though.

21

On board displays next station.

22

Fare 1.5 €. These rates, of course, generate a huge number of those who ride free. Therefore turnstiles are not simple, and those that jump over them without special training is not easy. There are several options to reduce the cost of travel, for example, can buy more trips, or purchase travel for the day, month and so on.

24

The price of the ticket as laid cultural program. This may be various tricks, performances or live music.

25

Buses. Buses are buses and Africa — everything is simple… simple and comfortable.

26

Buses are urban and intercity. By the way, when we were driving from Madrid to Valencia, it came under the passport control.

27

You can move between cities and other means. Preferred — train.

28

The price of tickets is dynamic, as in aircraft, the sooner you buy, the less you pay. The average price of the cheapest flights from Madrid to Barcelona — 60 €.

29

For security guard police stations with police dog people.

30

Stayed last mode of transport. By public it probably will not name, but fast — you can. This — aircraft.

31

In Europe (including Spain) on domestic flights they fly low, so you can enjoy luxury scenery. But it's poetry, the most important thing is that those flights — cheap. Sometimes even cheaper than bus or train.

Another advantage — an aesthetic pleasure from the airport. There are, of course, conventional airports, like this:

32

But there are also works of art, Barajas Airport in Madrid.
