4 April 2010 (in part) The city of Lisbon has an exceptional range of public transport, which includes trams (old and new), funiculars, a street elevator, river ferries (boats and catamarans), ships of all kinds (merchant and navy), underground Metros (one in Lisbon, one on the south bank of the Tagus), railways (suburban, national and international), monorail, cablecar, buses (city, suburban, national and international) and aircraft. Virtually all of these modes of transport have undergone major change in recent years, which makes them particularly interesting. And all are reachable within a half hour from the city centre. These pages also cover transport museums in the Lisbon area and include suggested day-trips by train from Lisbon and within Lisbon itself.
