CAR & MOTORCYCLE
Parking places are limited and much of the Altstadt is only accessible on foot, so it's easi-
er to leave your car at one of three park-and-ride points to the west, north and south of
the city. The largest car park in the centre is the Altstadt Garage under Mönchsberg (€18
per day); some restaurants in the centre will stamp your ticket for a reduction. Rates are
lower on streets with automatic ticket machines (blue zones); a three-hour maximum ap-
plies (€3.90, or €0.60 for 28 minutes) from 9am to 7pm on weekdays. For car hire, try
