Driving
The streets around Valladolid range from old, narrow laneways to large highways. The roads, however, are generally in great condition. Like other cities and towns in Spain, Valladolid experiences parking restriction issues. Nevertheless, once tourists find a parking spot in the heart of town, they can walk to most spots of interest. Drivers must carry two warning triangles, a spare wheel, spare light bulbs, a reflective jacket and a spare pair of glasses, if needed.
