Arrival and information
|
|
|
The
Aeropuerto Internacional Villeda Morales
, the point of arrival for both domestic and international flights, lies 12km southeast of the city. As yet, there is no public transport between the airport and the city centre;
taxis
charge around US$8.
Buses
arrive at their own separate terminals, most within a few blocks of each other in central San Pedro.
San Pedro's regular grid layout makes navigation easy: avenidas run north-south and calles east-west, numbered in ascending order from the central 1 Avenida and 1 Calle, which intersect two blocks east of the cathedral. The city is further divided into quadrants, whose labels - southwest (SO), southeast (SE), northwest (NO) and northeast (NE) - are always used in directions. The bus terminals, many hotels and the main commercial area are in the southwest sector, close to the centre. Running west from the Parque Central, 1 Calle is also known as the Blvd MorazA?n for the twelve blocks before it meets the
Av CircunvalaciA?n
ring road, which separates the city centre from San Pedro's wealthier residential districts; this is where many of the more upmarket restaurants are located. Beyond the CircunvalaciA?n, 1 Calle becomes Blvd los PrA?ceres. Other useful information
