=== South, towards [[Hîncești]], [[Cimișlia]], [[Cahul]], [[Comrat]], [[Leușeni]] ===
The best way is to go to the "Gara Auto de Sud-Vest" (Southwest Bus Station), were from where all the buses to the Southwest depart. The bus station is located not far from a television building and antenna (you can see the antenna from almost every point in the city). Currently you can reach bus station by taking:
* trolleybuses Nr.9 and 17, they have a stop directly in the front of the bus station.
* minibuses Nr. 180, 124, 117, 109, 192, they don't have a stop there, but you can ask the driver to stop at bus station (Romanian: ''opritzi va rog la Gara de SUD.'' "please stop at the bus station").
* Bus Nr.11 (but it does not go as often as trolleybuses and minibuses)
The hitchhiking place is right at the trolleybus station, in the front of bus station. There are usually people there trying to get a ride. Be patient; this road is the main road to the south, so many cars are going in that direction.
The other people at this spot are generally locals paying for the rides -- if you feel strange trying to hitchhike for free from there or want to get out faster, there is also a large petrol station 500m north along the road on the left side. There you can ask drivers for rides or hitchhike next to the exit.

== Places to avoid ==
Try avoiding policemen when wandering around with your backpack at night, as they will ask you questions regarding your place of stay. They can more or less force you into a hotel, or just simply annoy your time away out of boredom. Don't expect to 'chill out' at the train station, because they will ask you where you're going or send you away.
