Lisbon Trams

A traditional form of public transport in Lisbon is the tram. Originally introduced in the 19th century, the trams
were imported from the U.S. and called the 'americanos'. These distinctive yellow trams are one of the tourist
icons of modern Lisbon, and their size is well suited to the steep hills and narrow streets of the central city.

Cablecar in Lisbon
 Ascensor da Bica

The Bica Funicular (Portuguese: Elevador da Bicaor Ascensor da Bica) is a funicular, a cable railway, in
Lisbon. It was opened in 1892. It climbs the Rua da Bica de Duarte Belo for 245 meters from the Rua S.
Paulo. The lower station of this funicular railroad is almost hidden behind a facade on Rua de S. Paulo
with the inscription 'Ascensor da Bica'. In 2002 it was designated a National Monument.

The Bica cable car ascends slowly in a narrow space between houses.

People live around here are not concerning about a cable car until it approaches at the very close point.

首都、リスボンで真っ先に目を引くのが観光スポットである歴史的地区を走り抜ける路面電車であろう。そのほとんどが
黄色が目立つ電車が多くの観光客を乗せ、狭い急な坂道を上下している様はリスボン特有の光景だ。一見、普通のビルの
ように見える建物の1階からピカ線のケーブルカーは出発する。途中では路面で話す男女の電車の来る直前に体を
かわしてよけたり、犬が平然とケーブルカーの前を横切ったりするのが見える。サンフランシスコとは異なり、人々の
暮らす家の前をかすめるようにして運行している。
