Tram Ride
Much more than a means of transport, the tram is a bit of Sintra´s history.
Sintra´s tram was 100 years old on 31st March 2004. On 10th July of its inaugural year, its route was extended to Praia das Maçãs. Later, it got to Azenhas do Mar.
The initial aim of this tram was to grant social benefits, and have an important role in the development and progress of the villages it served.
