Alternatively, take a colectivo from highway 199 to the terminus at the start of the northern suburb/barrio of Las Joyas (at the turnoff for highway 10). Walk about 500m north along highway 199 till you reach the outskirts of the city. (This spot is approx. 5.4kms walk from the ADO bus station). The advantage of this place is that you will have cut out all the local traffic and should be able to at least get a ride to the main interstate highway 186 (20kms away) where it will be much easier to get a long distance ride either east towards [[Campeche]], [[Chetumal]]/[[Cancun]] or westtowards [[Villahermosa]]. === South towards [[Ocosingo]], [[San Cristobal de las Casas]] ===From the ADO bus station, walk south approx. 500m along highway 199 to the junction with the road leading to the Palenque ruins. This is a good place to hitch south towards the waterfalls at Agua Azul and onwards to [[Ocosingo]] and [[San Cristobal de las Casa]].Alternatively, keep walking another 300m to almost the southern edge of town and you will find a Pemex gas station and a police post with 'topes' (speedbumps) so traffic has to slow right down.
