The tram in Sintra is a historic line that connects the center of Sintra to the coast, specifically to Praia das Maçãs beach. This narrow-gauge tram line was built in the early 20th century, in 1904, and still attracts tourists with its retro charm and scenic views. History: The tram was originally intended to facilitate transportation between Sintra, a popular resort town, and the beaches along the coast. In the 1970s, the tram stopped operating due to a decline in popularity and technical difficulties, but it was later restored as a tourist attraction. Features: Route: The tram route starts in the center of Sintra and ends at the coast, passing through small villages like Colares and Praia das Maçãs. The line is about 8 miles (13 km) long. Tram type: The line uses original wooden carriages that have been carefully restored, preserving the early 20th-century atmosphere. Scenery: The tram ride offers passengers stunning views of Sintra’s countryside, the mountains, and the Atlantic coastline. This tram line is not just a means of transportation but also a kind of "time machine" that allows travelers to enjoy the atmosphere of past centuries amidst the picturesque surroundings of Sintra. https://maps.app.goo.gl/CMnyJdVUyhfJm... https://maps.app.goo.gl/7FKAWzAPT9rcF...
