Moving around in Spain - transportation
![]()
Spain is a modern country with highly developed infrastructure. Here you can find practically all the possible means of transportation that tourists can use to travel within the country. The airplane is one of the fastest ways to travel. Every major city of Spain has an airport in it, but they are located on the outskirts. The airports have domestic flights, which allow you to reach the necessary cities in a short time. This is especially true for traveling to the islands. In addition, the price of a ticket for domestic flights is often cheaper than the cost of other alternative modes of transportation. There is also a railway network in Spain. You can find railway stations in every major city. However, the cost of tickets for this mode of transportation is quite expensive. It is thus recommended to plan routes in advance and purchase travel cards, as this will be economical. You can also save cost if you purchase a return ticket. The train wagons are very comfortable and convenient. Usually, all of them are provided with air conditioning and toilets. However, some not very popular routes are run by old European diesel trains. The cost of tickets for such trains is cheaper, but they are less comfortable.

The economy of Spain is ranked fifth place among all the countries of the European Union by nominal GDP. On the world arena, the country’s economy occupies a stable 12th position. It is worth noting that the country’s purchasing power is one of the strongest in the world. The economy of the country was especially developed, thanks to the sectors of medium technological level, among which are its automobile industry, the production of audio-visual equipment, industrial machinery and equipment, and products of the chemical and cosmetic industries. However, the statistics of one of the analytical companies shows that among the hundred most recognized global brands, there is not a single Spanish. Leaders of the domestic industry are the producers of the wine “Freixenet”, Chupa Chups, the energy company Repsol, the brand Zara, and the hotel chain “Sol Mella”.
