28E, Historic tram route in Lisbon, Portugal
The yellow tram connects Martim Moniz with Campo Ourique across 7 kilometers through narrow medieval streets and steep hills of central Lisbon districts.
The electric tram line began operation in 1901, utilizing wooden cars manufactured at the beginning of the century to navigate routes unsuitable for modern vehicles.
Traditional yellow carriages transport residents and visitors through notable districts including Alfama, Baixa, Chiado, and Estrela, passing numerous churches and viewpoints.
The complete journey takes approximately one hour, with single tickets available for purchase from drivers or through prepaid cards at transportation offices.
Fifty original 1930s trams maintain their brass components and wooden interiors while carrying twenty seated and thirty-eight standing passengers through the city.
