Lovely hotel with a castle in the backyard and tramstop nearby The history of trams in Bratislava dates back to 1895, and they have always been electric. Nowadays they play a vital part together with the trolleybus and trains to make the city work. Almost 200 000 commutes into the city for work every day, increasing the population with 40 percent. It would be impossible to think this lively city without the public transport. The tram system in Bratislava has been greatly modernised since I visited. New trams, with larger capacity and comfort, reopening of the tram tunnel under the Castle Hill, and extension into the CBD on the Petržalka side of Danube river are among the upgrades These 60 new trams freight up to 45 000 ppl per day per carriage, a huge improvement. The trams serves 8 lines with 152 stops, in a network stretching 40 kilometers. The Ibis Hotel is typical for this chain of hotels, optimized for a good nights sleep after spending the day and evening out in the city. https://ec.europa.eu/regional_policy/en/projects/europe/new-trams-added-to-bratislava-s-public-transport-fleet #viewfrommyhotel #tram #nightphotography #2012CE #lighttrails #bratislavahrad #castle #hill #evening #tranetwork #public #transport #city #lifeline #citylife (ved ibis Bratislava Centrum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVX1wZPstcn/?utm_medium=tumblr
