'Mode': AROUND
Category: Subway/Metro
Getting TO/AROUND: Getting around Nürnberg is easy, although you may find yourself having to walk throgh the Old Town as the bit closest to the Burg has no underground, so you have to walk to the Lorenzkirche for a stop, and by then you are almost by the Central station anyway, if that's where you're heading. Chances are that you are indeed, as that is the public transport hub for the metro and several trams. It is where you get to Fürth or Luitpoldhain from easily for instance. The metro system is the smallest underground in Europe, but it takes you where you want to go usually.

The Central Station itself is huge, and one of the best I've seen as far as services go. Shops are plenty and open late for instance. There is an escalator down to the metro station with more shops and a general local transport office where you can buy daycards for travel around the Nürnberg region. There is even a pass for 2 adults for all travel in a day which is good value for money.
