Public transportation is pretty popular with passionate travelers who are trying to save time while visiting a new city, but walking around can be just as rewarding. There’s a lot of benefits you can reap by exploring a new city on foot, and here’s a couple you should keep in mind.
Local Feel
No better way to fully immerse yourself into a new city than walk around and see all its tiny quirks you wouldn’t have noticed otherwise. It won’t take you long to feel like a local this way, because you’ll get to see how people live their lives and start feeling like one of them.
Staying Active
It’s difficult to stay true to your fitness routine on the road, but missing the gym shouldn’t stop you from staying active. You’ll burn some major calories by walking all day long, and it will feel like the best workout you could possibly ask for.
Seeing More
Most travelers have a long list of places they want to visit in a new city, but you shouldn’t always follow it blindly. Walking around will allow you to stumble upon many amazing spots most people don’t know about, and some of them may end up being your favorites.
