Park your rental car in Ciudad Real

Leaving your rental car in Ciudad Real in the center of the city for free is practically impossible. The blue and orange zone covers most of the old town and the commercial area of the city. Remember that the streets in the center are usually narrow and there is a lot of traffic, so it can take you a long time to find parking. Our advice from Autofurgo is to leave the vehicle in the parking lot of the train station or in the Plaza Mayor. If you do not want to pay, you may have to try to park outside the center and walk about 10 or 15 minutes.
