You can get a free and useful map of Damascus at the tourist office. It's located near the ''Yussof Al'Azmeh'' Place, just walk there northwards for some 200 meters and you'll find the office on the left side.

=== North towards [[Aleppo]] ===

There are several options to hitchhike north towards [[Homs]] and [[Aleppo]]. A good spot to find the road northwards is from ''Martyr's Square'' (Ash Shuhada / Marjeh). There walk eastwards to the ''Al Thawra'' Street. You'll recognize the big bridge there. Follow the street to the left (northwards) for around 500 meters until you reach the crossing with ''Baghdad Street''. Walk further northwards for around 500 meters until you reach the pedestrian bridge and a minibus station. Walk under the bridge and you'll recognize the ramp to the highway going right (eastwards). Start your hitchhiking here with one of the many pickups towards [[Homs]]. Many signs will show you the way. Have fun waving down the taxi's and minibusses. :)
