In many European cities, public transportation systems require passengers to validate their tickets before boarding. Failing to do so can result in hefty fines, even if you’ve already purchased a ticket.
How to avoid it: Always check for validation machines, usually located near platforms or inside buses and trams. Look for signs or ask locals if you’re unsure.
Amidst the renowned cities and landmarks lie lesser-known treasures – small towns and villages that hold UNESCO status, each hiding unique cultural and historical significance.
