Tram to Opicina

This historical photograph shows the famous Opicina tram (Opcina) in service around 1908, as it tackles the characteristic panoramic ascent among the hills of Trieste. The period image highlights the winding route of the railway line, immersed in greenery and surrounded by scattered houses, a symbol of the connection between the city and the Carso plateau. The Opicina tram still represents one of the most beloved icons of the history of Triestine transport today.
