The most beautiful lift in the city Lisbon Portugal


One of the emblems of Lisbon is its electric cars, which have been in operation since the late 19th century. From this picturesque transport system stand out the so-called funiculars, which due to the existence of hills in the Portuguese capital, were created as a solution for travel from the lowlands of the city to the highlands. Of all the funiculars, the most appealing is the one that is in Rua da Bica, the called Elevator da Bica. This beautiful system of electric cars is a Lisbon symbol and the simple experience of riding in them is most relaxing, warm and romantic. With a leisurely course, just like the soul of the city, this tour is enriching and quite useful to save you a hike up a steep climb.
