Cómo funcionan los indicadores

Qué mostramos y qué omitimos

Cada indicador procede de una fuente que puede abrir. Cuando no tenemos ningún dato, la lista dice «sin indicar» o no muestra nada: no hacemos suposiciones. Consulte con el recinto antes de viajar, porque los precios, los horarios y las normas de reserva cambian.

  • Tipo. Nuestra propia clasificación del tipo de cada lugar en nuestras guías de destinos (por ejemplo, museo, castillo o jardín). Es un filtro, no una valoración.
  • Entry (free or paid). Shown only where the venue's own website says so in plain words, read on 25 Oct 2026. 0 places here are marked free and 0 paid; the other 44 are not stated. "Free" means general admission: special exhibitions, events and facilities can still be charged. The words we relied on are on the sources page.
  • Reservas. Todavía no hemos leído ninguna página de un local que aconseje reservar en estos lugares, así que no hay filtro de reservas. Consulte cada web oficial.
  • Sin escalones. Solo estado notificado, procedente de los colaboradores de OpenStreetMap o de la página de accesibilidad del propio recinto: 0 lugares tienen una notificación de acceso sin escalones o parcialmente sin escalones. El filtro de acceso sin escalones oculta los lugares sin notificación; eso no significa que no sean accesibles. Póngase en contacto con el recinto.
  • Indoor or outdoor. Our rules for the kind of place (16 indoor, 0 partly covered, 9 outdoor; the rest are not classed). It says nothing about opening hours or shelter on the day.
