The capital of Bosnia & Herzegovina has the oldest tram system in Europe and the second oldest in the world after San Francisco.
It opened on New Years day 1885 with the city used as a guinea pig for the Austro-Hungarian empire, of which Sarajevo was a part at that time. It was a test as to the viability and safety of the transportation, before they were to be deployed in Vienna.
The original trams were horse-drawn of course, with today’s modern versions dating back to the ’70s & ’80s, as well as some newer versions provided by Amsterdam in 2008.
They are a great way to rattle around the fascinating city and add to the ambience of ‘The Jerusalem of the North’.

They somehow look so lonely and yet as if the heart of the place that pumps life to all sides. I didn’t know it was the second oldest in the world, how good is that – I love trams, actually

The older the better! I think the old Prague trams that shuttle up to the castle are my favourites.
