Life and transportation mode of Portuguese immigrants

Because of its convenient transportation and superior natural environment, Portugal has gradually become a new holiday territory for European royal family members and Hollywood stars. For every new Portuguese immigrant, it is very important to be familiar with the mode of transportation in Portugal. Let's take a look at it with the overseas immigration network.

train

Portugal's train system is very developed, with trains connecting major cities. The train schedule is different from the specific running time, and there are often delays. In Lisbon, Portugal, if you want to travel to Porto and other cities, choosing a train is a good way to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way.

Portugal has a small population, so it won't be crowded by train, just like taking a private car.

Portuguese Railways operates the following trains:

Alpha tilting train: It runs between Lisbon-Porto-Braga and Porto-Lisbon-Faroe.

Intercity train (IC): from Lisbon to Porto-Guimaraes/Gualda/Covilha/Faroe/BESA/Evora.

Short-distance regional trains and interval trains

Suburban trains in Lisbon, Porto and coimbra.

Lusitania Hotel Train between Lisbon and Madrid

The Sud Express express train between Lisbon and Ange can transfer to TGV train for Paris.

subway

(1) The development exceeds your expectation: the subway and light rail system in Porto. Did Porto choose 200 1? European cultural center? And it is a very fast and cost-effective mode of transportation. The operation time is from the first bus at 6:00 to 65438+ the last bus at 0:00 the next day. Although it is impossible to go every 2 minutes like some countries, there is no need to stop work for maintenance every weekend, with frequent failures.

(2) Lisbon Metro: Generally, it is divided into four lines: blue line, red line, green line and yellow line.

The subway runs from 6: 30 to 0:00 the next day, and the subway fare is 1.25 euros. The subway station is relatively simple and the instructions are clear. The frequency of the subway is relatively small, so it can't run every two minutes like in some places.

bus

There are many flights and they are cheap, so you can reach almost anywhere in Portugal. Express bus is the main mode of travel.

driving/driver's licence

Drivers' licenses issued by all EU countries can be used in Portugal. For Commonwealth citizens with old-fashioned driver's licenses, they need to pass the international driver's license examination before they can go on the road. In Brazil, the United States and other non-EU countries, the driver's licenses issued by these countries are also recognized by the government. Portugal is a right-wing country, so China's driver's license needs to be changed at the Portuguese Embassy before Portuguese investors immigrate.

Driving on the streets of Portugal is also a pleasure. There are no chaotic scenes, only clear and complete traffic signs and facilities. Street lamps, traffic lights, electronic police, traffic monitoring and guiding signs are installed on a lamppost, which broadens the field of vision and makes driving more enjoyable.

Looking at human factors, drivers here have a strong sense of obeying the rules, and they can hardly see uncivilized phenomena such as fighting for lanes, pressing lines, driving in the opposite direction, and not using lights according to regulations, which effectively guarantees safe travel. The orderly situation is commendable.

ferry

Portugal is a country near the sea, so the ferry business is busy, and many tourists like to take the Portuguese ferry to see the scenery. Ferry in Portugal is rarely used as a means of transportation, but for sightseeing. After all, Portugal's land transportation is very developed, and you can drive anywhere you want.

plane

There is no direct flight from China to Portugal, so you need to transfer to get there, usually from London. Portugal Airlines is Portugal's national airline and the largest airline, mainly responsible for domestic routes and routes in major cities around the world. Portugal also has a smaller Portuguese airline, Portugal Airlines, which is mainly responsible for aviation missions in major Portuguese cities such as Bordeaux and Faroe, as well as flights from a few countries such as Western Europe.
