Before you go
Carry water and small cash notes for stalls. Wear shoes you can walk in for two hours, expect uneven pavements, and keep your bag on the building side of the street. Every stop on this route can be skipped without breaking the walk, and cafe stops make natural rest breaks. Walking times are honest estimates, not promises, the quarter rewards wandering.
