R iding Lisbon's trams can either be a charming or insane experience. You'll have a fun ride when you have a seat and enjoy the views, but if you happen to stand, packed like a sardine in a can, you'll start thinking of other options.
It is also not the best form of transportation when you're in a hurry, as double-parked cars often slow down the journey.
Still, no visit to Lisbon is complete without a ride on these old marvels, especially number 28. They've been in operation since 1901, and all of them (except modern tram 15) still have their original wood paneling.




TRAM 15
From Praça da Figueira it goes to Praça do Comércio and continues down the riverfront, passing by Cais do Sodré, Avenida 24 de Julho, and Belém -- then back.
