Athens  is a city in GREECE.

Understand
The city with the most glorious history in the world, a city worshipped by gods and people, a magical city. The enchanting capital of Greece has always been a birthplace for civilization. It is the city where democracy was born and most of the wise men of ancient times. The most important civilization of ancient world flourished in Athens and relives through some of the world's most formidable edifices. A safe place to journey!

Get in
The easiest way to get to Athens is to fly. If you are coming from the USA there are non-stop flights from New York by Delta Airlines and Olympic and then a dozen other airlines that you have to connect somewhere in Europe. Continental flies non-stop from Newark and US-Air non-stop from Philadelphia to Athens.

GREECEFLIGHTS specializes in finding the best rates to Greece and knows all the secrets for finding cheap flights.Visit www.greeceflights.com to find great rates.

Get around
The Athens Metro (subway) Attiko Metro has 3 Lines the old one Line M1 (ISAP) that starts from Piraeus and ends in Kifissia and the new Athens Metro lines M2 that starts from Agios Antonios and ends to Agios Dimitrios and the line M3.that starts from Egaleo and ends at Doukissis Plakentias from there you can take the Athens suburban railway (Proastiakos) to the Airport.There are parking spaces in Line M2 at the stations of Egaleo, Eleonas, Keramikos, Katehaki, Ethniki Amyna, Nomismatokopio, Halandri and Plakentias ,at the stations of Line M3 there are parking space at the station of Sygrou (Fix).

A combination of poor road infrastructure and bad driving leads to horrendously congested roads, particularly in suburban areas of Athens and Piraeus. Private parking spaces are a rare luxury. Due to lack of facilities, drivers will double or triple park or park on the pavements. It is not unusual to find yourself blocked in when someone has parked too close to your own car making it impossible to maneuver your way out.

GEORGE is the most famous Taxi driver in Athens. He'll accommodate you with:

Trips around the mainland: George is a wonderful host and translator and will make your experience in Greece a remarkable one. Imagine a trip to Delphi, Epidavros, Sounion, Evia, Myceneae and rather then sitting on a big tour bus you are cruising in an air-conditioned Mercedes taxi. You will be able to stop at quiet seaside tavernas, remote beaches where and when you want to. Shopping trips around Athens: Athens by Night or to take you from one Archeological site to the next, saving you time and wear and tear on your feet. To the ancestral village: perhaps you are going back to find your roots and need a translator as well as transportation. Business Trips: Maybe you are a businessman who wants to use his time efficiently or a traveler who wants to experience Athens with a knowledgeable friend. Making Connections: Got a 6am flight, cruise or ferry and want to make sure you are on it? Leave it to George. Arriving by Ferry: Imagine standing on the ferry from Mykonos or Santorini, full of people and as you arrive, you see three taxi cabs waiting for the hundreds of people about to get off the boat and you wonder how you are going to get to your hotel. Then imagine how you will feel knowing that one of them is George and he is waiting for you. Got a connecting flight and a few hours to spare? Let George help you make the best of your time in Greece even if it is just a few hours. Traveling with an Infant? George provides a car seat.

See
In Greece, you are in a crossroad of colors and cultures; you feel the strength of History and the warmth of the southern extremity of Europe and you discover the evolutionary course of thought, influence and experience.You are in a country with a uniquely affluent historical past, whose people, however, do not rest on their laurels and are not stuck in that past. You are in a country that, though statistically small, is huge in its diversity. You see landscapes that have given thousands of postcard images but remain incredibly vivid and of unrivalled beauty.

Greece is a country of beautiful contradictions, a constant journey in time, from the present to the past and back again. Walk through the olive groves, through archaeological sites; move to clusters of islands, go through beaches and mountains and explore the breathtaking scenery.

In Greece the succession of images is not just our imagination; it is a sheer reality.

Do
Touring the Heart Athens Syndagma Square (Constitution Square) is located directly across from the Greek Parliament and is considered to be the heart of modern Athens. Syndagma Square is called Platia Syndagmatos in the Greek language. Ermou is the popular pedestrian-friendly street that connects the Greek Parliament to the Old City of Athens Greece. The Greek Parliament Buildings (Vouli) is an attractive neoclassical building located next to the National Garden and across from Syndagma Square. The parliament buildings are also called the Royal Palace. The goose-stepping Greek Guards (called Evzones) can been seen doing their thing in front of the Greek Parliament and in front of the Presidential Residence. The National Garden is a unique urban park. The garden is comprised of both natural areas and formal gardens. Many Athenians as well as tourists, love to escape the summer heat in this beautiful green oasis located directly behind the Greek Parliament. The first stadium to host the modern Olympic Games in 1896 was built on the site of a historic Athenian stadium called the Panathenaic Stadium.

Piraeus (Pireas) is Athens' main port and the departure point for ferries to the Greek islands. The community is quite large and features some attractive waterfront cafes, bars and hotels. The Piraeus Archaeological Museum is a popular attraction in this Athens community.

They say the nightlife of Athens rivals that of New York, London and Paris and maybe surpasses those cities. One thing is for certain. You won't find more restaurants, bars, discos and clubs in a smaller area than you will in Athens with the majority of the nightlife being in central areas such as Psiri, Plaka, and Thission.

Walking Tours through Athens. A sightseeing city tour through the Syntagma area and the Plaka. Visit the old town of Athens as well as an intricate visit to the Acropolis of Athens. It is considered a "must" for all visitors to Athens, whether their stay is long or short, because Athens was, is and always will be a magnetic destination for those who long for historic value. Check out the amazing structures of Roman times.

Buy
Shopping in Athens. Downtown Athens is a shoppers paradise. Besides the areas of the Plaka and Monastiraki which are well known to travelers for their large variety of tourist shops all of central Athens is a shopper's Mecca. Streets that were once choked with traffic have now been closed to all motor vehicles and this diverse shopping area has become a walking shoppers paradise with every kind of shop you can imagine, and some you never imagined existed. There are street merchants selling everything from scarves to devices that make stuffed grape leaves or hollow out a zucchini. The clothing shops have quality men and women's apparel from all over the world and the shoe stores make you wonder why your choices at home are so limited. It is like a shoe-free-for-all that can be like the NY Stock Exchange during a buying frenzy.

-

Eat
Matt Barrett states "The Greeks love to eat. (Who doesn't?) Many Americans have a fear of coming to Greece because they are afraid of the food. There's nothing to be afraid of. It's not like Mexican. Nothing is so spicy you can't eat it and the seasonings they use are the very same ones you have on the spice shelf in your Kitchen. And unlike the crappy oil that terrorizes the hearts of many Americans, Olive oil is good for you and will keep you alive long after many of your friends have taken the next step in their spiritual evolution."

Types of Restaurants

-An estiatorio is a restaurant that serves cooked foods from the oven called magerefta but it can also have grilled to order foods called tis oras, and even fish, as well as appetisers (mezedes), and salads. -A psistaria is a grill house where you get spit-roast lamb, steaks, kokoretsi, grilled or rotisserie chicken as well as salads and appetizers. You can even get lambs heads. -A taverna usually has a smaller menu and specializes in something and are mostly for nighttime, long meals, lots of wine and conversation. -There are psaro-tavernas (fish tavernas) by the sea or even in Athens and of course on the islands. -Ouzerie and mezedopoulions specialize in smaller dishes which you eat with ouzo, though they serve wine and beer too. -All over Athens are fournos (bakeries) that along with loaves of bread sell tiropitas (cheese-pie), spanakopitas (spinach-pie), prasatopita (leek-pie), kolokithopita (zucchini-pie), kremedopitas (onion-pie), melitzanitopita (eggplant-pie), kaseritopita (kaseri-cheese-pie), kotopita (chicken-pie), kreatopita (meat pie) and tipatopita or zeropita (pies that don't appear to have anything in them.

There are approximately 52 restaurants in Athens. There are the "touristy" restaurants that would normally serve what travelers most often desire, and there are restaurants that cater exclusively to tourists. If you visit Greece as part of a tour group, chances are that you will mostly frequent such establishments. The food quality and service in both cases is exceptional, and the restaurants themselves are very clean. You normally find them in or around the most touristy spots of Greece (like Olympia) and the tour busses automatically unload their passengers at such restaurants before or after a visit to a major archaeological site. The prices vary but as a rule they are high, although they are often included in the tour price for a substantial discount.

Recommended Restaurant.

IDEAL is one of the longest surviving restaurants in Athens. It's about 80 years old. IDEAL provides the Athenians and tourists of Attica, region surrounding Athens, a wide menu of great quality and taste, in a friendly relaxing environment. Located at the very center of Athens.

Anyone is welcome to drink as much as their heart desires. Everyone is expected to act civil before, during, and after drinking

Ouzo is a well-known traditional Greek drink. At it's best, Ouzo is tasty with a seafood dinner. It is a very strong liquor with a distinct minty odor. It is best sipped out of a shot glass straight, on the rocks, or diluted with water. It is famous for the major hangovers it produces the "day after" and should be taken with some care. Ouzo "12" and "Metaxa" are the most popular brands of ouzo in Greece, although you can find local varieties of good quality in different rural areas.

Metaxa is a special Greek spirit invented by a silk trader named Spyros Metaxas. This happened in 1888 in Attica region. Since then, the product has earned world recognition for its quality, color and taste. The product has been marketed very well all around the world and became famous creating a very large number of dedicated lovers. Expressions of admiration and adjectives like "The Elixir of Life", "The Nectar of the Gods", "The Blessed Spirit" accompanied Metaxa from its birth.

Sleep

I just recently discovered this site and have become inexplicably addicted to browsing the articles for places I've been. I'm contributing where I can, but the articles that I look for that are missing I certainly don't have enough knowledge of to start. For instance, I'd like to learn more about the Pacific Crest Trail, which has a small article, or the John Muir Trail, which as of right now has nothing at all.

"Keep Walking"

- Johnnie Walker

Our coverage of the world is so uneven. Looking at the number of articles by country and more specifically where the higher quality star and guide articles are located, it is clear we have a lot of work to do. Countries that are Anglophone or developed (if not both) obviously and inevitably have better coverage than countries that are neither. Sometimes obscure, middle-of-nowhere destinations of the former have an article while the destination containing the most prominent attraction of a latter country doesn't yet exist. One exception to the trend is that countries close, allied and familiar to the Five Eyes tend to be well covered. The level of detail within countries also varies widely for similar reasons.

Having said that, I see this gap as an opportunity. Systemic bias isn't unique to Wikivoyage, and by boosting our coverage of underrepresented parts of the world and topics, we will create an advantage over all other sources of travel information out there.

Me
I primarily worked on Wikipedia but have since expanded my Wiki-addiction. I have contributed to Wiktionary, Wikibooks and various wikis on Wikia as well.

The two cities in the world where I've travelled most extensively are Sydney and Delhi respectively. Having said that, the whole world is beautiful and I'm fascinated by all cultures and lands. I have read about and been to many others parts of our planet.

User:(WT-en) DALAT TOURISM

Dalat is not Nha Trang, or HCMc: all the toursit destinations are not in the center: waterfalls, "Valley of Love", Langbian Mountain...about 7 to 20km far away from the center city! If you visit Nha Trang, you must definitely stay near the beach (Tran Phu Street) or in the island for cleaner water, tranquil..., HCMc: Western Town...but not in the center of Dalat (near the market).

The main purpose for guests to visit Dalat is relax, enjoy the cool fresh natural air, peaceful, tranquil or the historic of French Colonial NOT modern entertainments, not market, not noise and not polutted air!

As my experience, you should find the hotel NEAR THE CENTER not IN the center (Dalat is very small town), with good services, luxury, reasonable price BUT DO NOT stay in cheap hotel.

For me, vacation is enjoyable; relax so I need good sleep, good service and warm service as my home.

And remember to ask the price before buy anythings.

IF you want to discover new things, go as tour: city tour, trekking, climbing, discovering...or you can go as EASY RIDER or if you can ride motorbike, better rent: manual: 60.000d/day or automatic: 80 000d/day (the hotel rent for me bc this the cheapest price in Dalat) but you must have your driving license!

Airport transfer: Airport Shutle Bus: comfortable. big bus very cheap price about 3$/way.

Taxi: only Thang Loi 05: cheapest: 180 000vnd/way. The others: more than 300 000vnd/way.

So, I so regret to stay in the hotel in the center (near market): I can not sleep at all; too noisy, too crowded and not clean even I paid $27 for a Deluxe room of a 2 star hotel. The bed is so hard to sleep, the blanket is old, smell & not clean. The others guests are very noisy even at mid night (they drunk)

I visited the Ana Mandara Resort but the price for me is very expensive compare with the service $270++/ room, so I can’t move there. But, fortunately, I found the YK HOME LUXURY VILLA. It's a Luxury Villa or 2 star hotel. It's new, simple, luxury villa, very tranquil, good service. They served us as our real HOME.

It's very nice, decorated with all natural Cherry wood furniture, very comfortable bed.

More info: www.ykhomevilla.com

Hope that I can help you more and real info in Dalat

DANE YOUSSEF
DANE YOUSSEF

Nationality: Scottish-Arab

Hair: Brown

Height: 6'1"

Eyes: Hazel Green

Body Type: Slender, whippet thin.

Sign: Virgo

Career: Actor, writer, advertising, Marketing and Public Relations, comedian, filmmaker, performer, stand-up comic, singer, dancer and artist.

Hobbies: Bicycling, Dance, Music (listening), Video Games, Writing a Book

Author of numerous celebrity biographies, reviews for film and television, as well as posts on YouTube under the name "Dane Youssef."

Was an advertising cartoonist for the School Store of the Children's Learning Center of Alameda, Intern for TCI Cablevision of Alameda (now Comcast) Danced with the Alameda School of Dance (as soloist, performed in four ballets and the College of Alameda, performed numerous ballet recitals. Is now working as a freelance writer, performer, artist, cartoonist, spokesman and consultant, etc.

Honors: ''President's Education Award, 2001, for Outstanding Academic Achievement, Voted Junior Prince of the Graduating Class of at his school (2001) and the offical represenitive to City Hall of the Alameda High English class, numerous certificates and honors from the Children's Learning Center. Graduate of the Children's Learning Center and Alameda High School, both class of 2001.''

HIGHLIGHTS: Boyish, slender and overly-energenic, Dane Youssef is an odd, "colorful" type. The sort of entertainer that never picks a major. He enjoys versatility. Acting, singing, writing, drawing, filmmaking and others. He is apparently mulit-talented.

Apparently, but that's a simple misconception. Actually, he's just equally mediocre and pedestrian at different endeavors. And he has absolutely no attention span, so he is unable to focus on a single trade.

He is an outwardly spoken autistic--- a victim of Tourette Syndrome, Attention Deficit Disorder and Obsessive-Complusive Disorder. That last one, his superiors say, comes in very handy for perfectionism in the field.

A scouting executive for PREACH, Teamwork & Events discovered at the school they both attended during Dude's much younger years. This executive was impressed by his firey energy, Chaplin-like mannerisms and ability to make people laugh and really talk.

Unfortunetly, unlike everyone else, the exectuive was heavily put-off by Dane's raw open sewer mouth and third-grade sense of humor and so PREACH, TWAE wisely decided to seek recruits elsewhere.

The school requested Dane to direct a Christmas play one year because nobody else wanted the job. He wound up doing the writing himself with the head teacher of his classroom. A play directly for the school which would be aired on Cable Access. It wasn't well-written or well-directed. But, like a lot of things that were weak, boring, dull and idiotic, it still managed to get on TV.

Dane had his first taste of "publication" and wanted more.

But if you believe Darwin's theory, eventually Dane evolved and his lack of taste matured (Somewhat, I guess, but you'd have the ask the poor people trapped in the organization who are forced to work with him. Poor pathetic b*****ds). They met up at a mall years later and wound up discussing recruiting Youssef into the illustrious ranks of.

Well, here's proof of God, folks.

Dane himself says "is all about basically talents--performing talents--of all shapes and sizes coming together to create something special. Stand-up, singing, music, dance--anything that works onstage, That's what PREACH is all about. Finding fresh raw talent right off the streets and bringing it into the public eye and making their dreams to life."

Dane goes on to say, "What we at PREACH are really trying to market and perform is our vision. A dream. One we all share---fresh, off-beat people who march to the beat of their own drummer. Who come together and want to build this future in the entertainment industry. PREACH is about being constantly innovative. Experimenting and building, coming up with new ideas and trying them out.

Not just trying to be new and shocking. Novelty wears off, you know. Shock-'artists' like Tom Green and others do stuff that's just gross and provokative... and that's interesting for a few moments. It's like a car crash, morbid fascination. But it wears off. After a while you eventually realize, what you see is what you get.

And you wants so much more. It's only human nature. To hold onto the penis and s**t jokes is to cease to grow. To cease to evolve. To cease to improve. And we at PREACH are trying to get a little farther away from that.

True art always stands the test of time. We just want to see what we can do. And do it. Someone's got to change the whole world and the effects of history. I'm proud to be a part of all this."

Dane goes on to say a lot more, but we wisely tuned it out. I mean, really, who honestly cares?

Dane did not lend his desire to be a published writer to the little-read Alameda High Newsletter, nor did he lend his "day-player" acting ability to the drama club. "I regret it with every fiber of my being. It would have been just so damn great to be able to do my stuff without being such a damn outlaw. I fought teachers, other kids, authority figures... if I could go back in time and do it right, I would. But I can't. And I kick myself for it."

Being recruited into proves that there's a God. And he was willing to throw Dane a crumb.

Dane's biggest honors from the "hallowed halls" (that's right, that's written in quotation marks) of the school is being voted Junior Prince of Alameda High School, class of 2001. He was also a receipcent of Oustanding Achievement Awards from CLC for "Creativity," "Creative Writing," "Class Leadership" and "Most Likely To Succeed."

Poor, poor pathetic, deluded bastard. No one ever had the heart to tell him they pass those things out to everyone who went to that school with every full tank of gas. Every remedial serial freak who went to that school got one. Even the kid who ate his own scabs before they healed. Poor, poor deluded Dane.

Oh, well. Let the deluded little d**k dream, I mean, what else has he got?

In the summer of 2002, his dear sweet kitty passed away of cancer. Youssef made a movie about the cat's life before he passed away, which was aired several time on cable access television.

His hobbies are his very life, so his life is his hobby. He takes classical and modern ballet, bike-riding, exploring, learning money management. He helps out at home, walking the dog and finding all these ways to make his cat happy and screwing around on the internet.

He also occassionally writes celebrity bios and movie reviews. His birthday is September 17. He's a Virgo.

Guess what that stands for? No one's surprised.

DANE'S FORTUNE-COOKIE QUOTES OF WISDOM:

"Ballet is everything. It is an art, a sport, an exercise, a form of therapy. It is even a lifestyle if you love it."

"There's just something about 'Two In A Half Men.' It's so boring. So calculated. So generic. So safe. So of course, it's immensely popular. It's not the kind of show anyone can grow to love. It's the type the whole world watches."

"The worst thing you can do to something real, original, honest and edgy is to make it mainstream."

"The Nazi party... that was some party!"

"What is ballet, really? It's everything, really. It's a form of exercise, a body sculpting. It's as an athletic sport as football. Only the players all work together to create something together instead of trying to stop the others efforts. It's an out-of-body, ESP spiritual experience. It's an art form. It's a happening. It's an event. It's everything and anything at once. Ballet is even therapeutic because it gets a lot of excess energy, thought and worry off your mind and body and replaces it with a pleasantly released serene feeling. Like climaxing or releasing stress. Many misconstrue that you need to be rich, posh, snobby, female, intellectual, upper-crust and thin as a wafer to get it. That's just narrow-minded stereotyping idiocy. All ballet really requires is that while you're doing it (every minute you're doing it), you to give everything about yourself every moment."

"There are cultures that believe that the camera can steal your soul. In a way, that's true. When you act in the theatre, on-stage in front of a live audience, the script, the scene, the dialouge, your image, your performance... it all melts together... it all intertwines... all it all floats into the air. Everyone breathes it in. It's all one contained moment. But when you act on film, be it TV, movie or otherwise... anyway captured on film... The camera steals your performance. Your voice, your image, your emoting... it entraps it on film and takes it away. Like trapping a bug in a glass bottle. Your performance doesn't belong to you anymore. It's theirs now. They can do whatever they want with it."

"I have the ideal legs for ballet. I have 'dancer's legs'! As for flexibility, I'm more rubbery than Gumby and his bastard cousin Stretch Armstrong… Everything else, yeeesh. Well...You do the math."

"If it wasn't for sex, men and women wouldn't have any use for one another. Except for friendly conversation. Sex is the one thing that forces people to come together. That and loneliness. We need each other to keep society connected and running. Would it not for sex, we all would have disconnected from on another (especially the different sexes), the system would have broken apart eons ago."

"The sight of the empty dance studio early in the morning... no one is around... it's a little drafty, but a little warm at the same time... a pair of worn, battered, beaten ballet slippers on the hardwood floor... the old, weathered, but still hard and durable barre' on the wall... the dust floating through the air by the sunlight at the window.... it's all so d***ed beautiful, you know. It makes it all worth it." (on ballet)

"Always carry a loaded weapon. To school, to church, to your wedding, your honeymoon. Even to family reunions."

I am a natural-born traveller. I see travelling as the ultimate way to learn, open your mind, experience true freedom and... have fun!

I spent about 2 years travelling and living in many parts of Europe, South America, Central America and the USA, in addition to various short trips. I have recently turned my passion into a profession, working as a tour guide in South America. I live in Israel, moving to Barcelona soon.

I occasionally contribute to the Hebrew Wikipedia. As Wikipedia demonstrates, the Internet is the perfect means for sharing knowledge. I have thought before about starting a hebrew knowledge base on the Internet for Israeli travellers (as there are so many of us), and I believe Wikivoyage is the answer. Israelis travel so much that we can easily build an impressive Hebrew Wikivoyage. See Project:Hebrew Wikivoyage Expedition.

I'm Daniel, 20 years old, live in Jerusalem (Israel) and am chareidi Jewish ('ultra-orthodox').

To be precise, I'm a bit yeshivish with a little bit of satmarrer thought and lubavitcher chassidus mixed in.

I'm not originally from Israel; I was born in Holland and moved to Israel on my own when I was 19 years old, in 2005.

My main focuses on Wikivoyage are:
 * Israel: Jerusalem is where I live, Bnei Brak is another familiar place
 * The Netherlands: Zutphen is my hometown, Gelderland the province
 * Switzerland: Graubunden is my canton, and many towns and villages and mountains there bear my footprints

I also speak moderate Hebrew and some Yiddish, but those templates are not in our Babel yet (I will add them later).

I was already active on Wikipedia in 2004 or so, but left for about a year and just recently started again. Let's turn this project into something useful.

I am mainly active on the Dutch and English Wikipedias; see my userpages on wikipedia:User:Daniel575 and nl.wikipedia. If you want to reach me, that might be the fastest way.

User:(WT-en) Daniel575/Bus travel in Israel

This article deals with travelling through Israel by bus. There are several bus companies in Israel: Egged is the largest. Other companies include Dan, Kavim, Superbus, Margalit and Metropolin. Egged is also the world's second largest bus company. Currently, this article deals mainly with Egged lines; it will expand to include lines of other bus companies as well.

Buses are the most common form of public transportation for Israelis and travellers alike. The extensive national bus system is run by a public corporation called Egged (pronounced "Egg-ed"), the second-largest bus network in the world. Additionally, a bus company called Dan operates solely in the Tel Aviv metropolitan area. The bus transport system is slowly being changed, however, as Egged phases out of many of its former routes to be replaced by cheaper and faster companies.

Each bus line is classified by Egged as either 'Regular' (measef), 'Express' (yashir) or 'Direct'. The word measef literally means collecting, i.e. the bus either enters each town it passes, or stops at almost each intersection along its route, which usually makes it very slow compared to express buses. Express buses, are usually on long-distance routes and might travel at certain sections along the same stretch as other bus routes, but they do not stop at each intersection. On top of that, an Express bus is not obligated to pick up short-distance passengers and the driver cannot sell a ticket for a short ride along his route. The express lines are not usually pure non-stop routes, but might have a minimal amount of stops while leaving and entering the different cities. Direct buses have no intermediate stops at all.

Many if not most of Egged's bus lines originate or end in a central bus station/terminal (CBS/CBT). Tel Aviv Central Bus Station is the largest such terminal, also being the largest in the world.

Some lines, mainly running between major ultra-Orthodox Jewish population centers, are classified as ultra-Orthodox buses. These buses are public and can be used by anyone, but travellers should note that men and women (with the exception of husband and wife, or parents with children) are not supposed to sit next to each other, and women may be expected to sit in the back of the bus, whereas men are supposed to sit in front. For women, a modest style of dress would also be recommended (meaning, no miniskirts or bare shoulders).

The level of passenger information provided by the companies, especially Egged, is very poor, especially for those who do not understand Hebrew fluently. A (growing) list of bus lines found below shows some of Israel's bus lines. It is is intended to be a source of information that the official company websites lack.

NB: Without being unduly alarmist, buses and bus-stops have unfortunately been the targets of suicide bombers in recent years. If you see anyone acting suspiciously, or discover an untended parcel, notify the driver, a soldier or police officer immediately. If you can, avoid standing in large crowds of people in order to further minimise any risk. For the past years however, the number of suicide attacks on buses has steadily declined, and the last suicide attack on a city bus in Jerusalem was 2 years ago.

User:(WT-en) Daniel575/List of Egged lines

The Egged Bus Cooperative is the largest bus company in Israel, and the second largest in the world. It operates over a hundred bus lines, including internal city lines in many of Israel's cities (in others, the Dan Bus Company, Kavim, Superbus, etc. operate the internal lines), as well as most of Israel's inter-city lines. Below is a list.

Each bus line is classified by Egged as either 'Regular' (measef), 'Express' (yashir) or 'Direct'. The word measef literally means collecting, i.e. the bus either enters each town it passes, or stops at almost each intersection along its route, which usually makes it very slow compared to express buses. Express buses, are usually on long-distance routes and might travel at certain sections along the same stretch as other bus routes, but they do not stop at each intersection. On top of that, an Express bus is not obligated to pick up short-distance passengers and the driver cannot sell a ticket for a short ride along his route. The express lines are not usually pure non-stop routes, but might have a minimal amount of stops while leaving and entering the different cities. Direct buses have no intermediate stops at all.

Many if not most of Egged's bus lines originate or end in a central bus station/terminal (CBS/CBT). Tel Aviv Central Bus Station is the largest such terminal, also being the largest in the world.

For women, a modest style of dress would also be recommended (meaning, no miniskirts or bare shoulders).

The level of passenger information provided by Egged is not quite good, especially for those who do not understand Hebrew fluently. This list is intended to be a source for the information that the Egged website lacks.

The word measef literally means collecting, i.e. the bus either enters each town it passes, or stops at almost each intersection along its route, which usually makes it very slow compared to express buses. Express buses, are usually on long-distance routes and might travel at certain sections along the same stretch as other bus routes, but they do not stop at each intersection. On top of that, an Express bus is not obligated to pick up short-distance passengers and the driver cannot sell a ticket for a short ride along his route. The express lines are not usually pure non-stop routes, but might have a minimal amount of stops while leaving and entering the different cities. Direct buses have no intermediate stops at all.

Many if not most of Egged's bus lines originate or end in a central bus station/terminal (CBS/CBT). Tel Aviv Central Bus Station is the largest such terminal, also being the largest in the world.

Some lines, mainly running between major ultra-Orthodox Jewish population centers, are classified as ultra-Orthodox buses. These buses are public and can be used by anyone, but travellers should note that men and women (with the exception of husband and wife, or parents with children) are not supposed to sit next to each other, and women may be expected to sit in the back of the bus, whereas men are supposed to sit in front. For women, a modest style of dress would also be recommended (meaning, no miniskirts or bare shoulders).

The level of passenger information provided by the companies, especially Egged, is very poor, especially for those who do not understand Hebrew fluently. A (growing) list of bus lines found below shows some of Israel's bus lines. It is is intended to be a source of information that the official company websites lack.

NB: Without being unduly alarmist, buses and bus-stops have unfortunately been the targets of suicide bombers in recent years. If you see anyone acting suspiciously, or discover an untended parcel, notify the driver, a soldier or police officer immediately. If you can, avoid standing in large crowds of people in order to further minimise any risk. For the past years however, the number of suicide attacks on buses has steadily declined, and the last suicide attack on a city bus in Jerusalem was 2 years ago.

User:(WT-en) Dan the plank

Hello fellow Wikivoyagers,

 * I found the Wkitravel.org site when it was mentioned on the BBC web site.

I tried to place a page on the site regarding my experiences in Brazil's Salvador de Bahia. However no sooner was it published than it was censored. I repeated my efforts to find Big Brother attacked it again. My frustration must have shown when I wrote a rude word on the page. The "management" then put up a page that was a compromise, but I can live with that.

My travels have taken me far and wide. I am a Brit and live in the North West of England.

I have visited:- France, Germany, Austria,Holland, Belgium,luxembourg,Lichenstein, Italy,Switzerland, Sweden, The former Yugoslavia including Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro,Greece, Cyprus, Portugal, Spain, The Balearics,Tunisia, Morocco, Madeira, Canary Islands, Senegal,South Africa, The Falkland Islands, Brazil, Uruguay, Panama, Guatemala,Honduras,Belize, Mexico, Venezuela, U.S.A.including Hawaii, Canada, Russia,Australia, The Phillipines, China, Taiwan, The Carribean ,

The one place that I am certainly wanting to visit is New Zealand.

User:(WT-en) Darkblood777

Darkblood777 is a person living in Addison, Texas, United States.

Understand

 * I am a strong advocate for mass-transit. When I add a new listing in the Dallas area, I try to add a DART bus number or transit station in the directions for people using mass-transit.  I got this idea after my trip to London in November 2008.  Their local events magazine "TimeOut: London" shows a listing of the nearest Underground station with every event.

Get in

 * I got in cold, naked, wet, and screaming at a hospital somewhere in Dallas, Texas.

Get around
There are many methods I use for getting around.

 * By car - The car can get me to the most places, and sometimes is the only choice I have to get to some places. The car still rules supreme in Dallas, but the tides are changing.
 * Mass transit - DART does provide a convenient way to get around Dallas, and I use it when I go downtown or to a place I don't want to pay for parking or leave my car.
 * By bicycle - I'm using it more to get around now. However, trying to get the local businesses to install bike racks is like pulling teeth.
 * On foot - Still my most reliable mode of transportation, but I cannot get my speed above 5 MPH too well.

See

 * I am a 6'2", 300 lbs caucasian male. I often dress in whatever is comfortable, and I love cargo pants.

Do

 * I like to write, draw, create other random ideas.
 * I enjoy exploring the ins and outs of the Dallas area.
 * I enjoy traveling all over the world, but due to having parents that hate to travel I never got to do that much during my childhood.
 * I enjoy dressing up and going to renaissance festivals.
 * I participate in the Dallas Fort Worth Urban Forum.

Learn

 * I love to study obscure things, and find out why things work the way they do.
 * I'm an architecture and infrastructure geek.
 * I was a straight B student in high-school, but frankly I think I learned more on my own than I ever did in class.
 * I generally get interested in a multitude of things, but I have a short attention span, so not long after I start a project I bounce over to the next one. Maybe I should publish a book with all the half-completed short stories I wrote.

Work

 * I work in tech support, providing assistance to employees working in our many hotel chains. I don't talk directly to customers.

Buy

 * I'm not really for sale, but I can be rented for short periods of time. I come with a 60 year or 60 yards money-back guarantee.

Eat

 * I'm a gourmet, so I enjoy a large variety of interesting foods. I can't think of any nationality of food that I don't like at least something from.

Drink

 * I enjoy many a drink, especially the ones loaded with sugar.

Sleep

 * I sleep on a king-size bed with at least one other person most nights. We have mutiple covers as we're both skilled at sheet-stealing.

Stay safe

 * Just no sudden moves!!!

Get out

 * I hope to leave this world the same way I came in: cold, naked, wet, and screaming. Hmm, that requires some planning on my part.

 * Dubai, UAE
 * Tokyo, Japan
 * Mexico City, Mexico
 * New York City, USA

Where I want to stay for more than one month
In order of importance,

 * July - I'm pretty sure we are going to do something in KL, Kuala Lumpur
 * September - Up to Seoul to see a friend and look at the developments in Incheon.
 * November - Maybe Seattle for some training.

frequent traveller but usually on a very small scale. Main reasons are the spacial fragmentation of the extended family, as well as current and former business connactions spread across several cities and countries.

User:(WT-en) DaveinChina

I´m Dave Hadley, an Australian currently living in northeastern China. I love traveling and have visited more than 30 countries and lived in 8 of them.

I´ve been living in China since 2005 in Dongguan (Guangdong province) and Shaungyashan, Hailun, Harbin and Suiling in Heilongjiang province. I´m married to a very lovely local lady and we have a young daughter whose Chinese is much better than mine. I´ve been teaching English mostly, at all levels for kindy to university and my wife & I presently have a private English training center in Suiling.

I run an English-language community portal, The Haerbinger, for everyone living in or visiting Harbin. I´ve also embarked on a mammoth task to travel and document driving in China, especially for foreigners. ChinaRoads is starting off in the Dongbei region, exploring the back roads and looking at the places that foreign travelers rarely have the opportunity to experience.

-I am interested in free mp3 audio tours for self-guided tourism. -I think the wiki projects would be a good source of free content -I think the tours should be free, supported by donation, or possibly google ads
