Santiago de Compostela - Getting Around
Public Transport
Taxis
Driving in the City
The Old Quarter of Santiago de Compostela is small and compact - it is best for visitors to walk, as it can be very hard to find a place to park in the narrow streets, and much of the quarter is pedestrianised. Visitors are advised to leave their cars at one of the many car parks around the Old Quarter's perimeter. There are car parks at Praza de Galicia, Rúa de Ramon Pineiro (near the Galician parliament building) and near the police station on Avenida Rodrigo de Padron. Metered parking is also available in the city - the cost depends on the location.
