Elevator Of Nazare

2010 marks the 121th anniversary of The Nazare's Funicular in Portugal. This scenic century old public transport mode was built on July 28, 1889 and at that time, it was pulled by a steam engine. The funicular railway is considered to be one of the better initiatives of the town’s history, allowing the growth and development of the district of Sitio on top of the hill, as well as providing an easier access to the beach quarter. Before the funicular railway was built, access was quite difficult as there were only a gravel walking path on a 3 km road from Sitio to Nazare town. Thanks to Sofia from Canedo, Portugal for sending me this lovely postcard...
