Any particular reason?

The main thrust was about finding a big car park outside of the historic centre and use your legs. Not sure what is objectional about that

(I'm also European if we're doing that)

Well, how do you travel personally? Do you employ the same approach that you're recommending here?

Yes

When visiting Europe, I mostly avoid cities, but when I visit them, I usually take public transport. (Yes, if you stalk my comments, you'll see I make an exception occasionally). I've parked at various train stations in Europe and got the train in, especially the bigger cities

Outside of cities (e.g. the coasts) I usually rent a car, and park in the cheaper spots and use my legs.

I'm generally pretty tight when it comes to paying for parking. 15 EUR a day is my limit when travelling so usually find cheaper alternatives even if it means more walking

At home in the UK I walk, cycle, take the train and drive. Again, I tend to avoid cities but yes I do use Park and Ride sometimes when I drive. Or I park on the outskirts during free periods (e.g. Sundays).

On top of that, I live close to amenities and walk everywhere for shopping etc. It's not flat either.

Satisfied? :)

Thanks for the substantive contribution to the conversation ... /s

You wanted to try to call me a hypocrite but failed. Better luck next time
