Where can I park my car in Italy?

In Italy, you can park:
  • In designated spaces (lines marked on the road, or signs indicating parking is allowed)
  • In parking garages or lots.
  • On the side of the road, even if it is not marked (by lines on the road or a sign), as long as it is not an area you're not allowed to park in.
