Nececito ayudar con saber y conocer

Question

If you know where a place is, would you use conocer? For example: Uds. ________la ciudad. I am completing a homework sheet. It's super long. Would it be saben or conocen? Which one is directional? Isn't Saber used with knowing a place? I know that conocer is to know a person and something else....and I know that saber is to know a fact or something.....

Thanks for any help! Sarahjs

Answer 1

Here is a fuller article comparing and contrasting Saber and Conocer:

Saber vs. Conocer

Answer 2

HI Sarah,so in your sentence you got it the other way round:

Ustedes conocen la ciudad.

Answer 3

You use "conocer" for places, countries, cities e.g. Conozco bien el museo. Conoce Madrid como la palma de la mano.
