Bosnian Tram World

Whenever you visit a European city, you can't help but learn about the local tram system. The establishment of every country always includes transportation. Trams often represent the characteristics of that European city. The tram system in Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia, dates back to the late 19th century. In 1885 the first electricity supply system for horse-drawn carriages was opened in Sarajevo. These carriages use electricity instead of traditional horse-drawn power. Early 20th century: The tram system was expanded and became one of the main modes of public transportation in the city. The tram network covers all important areas in the city. 1992–1995: During the Bosnian Civil War, the tram system was severely damaged and many tracks and facilities were destroyed. The above history has witnessed the development of the city, war and prosperity of the tram. This time when I came to this area, I wanted to share with you the colorful but somewhat old trams. It always has a hint of Eastern European communism. Sarajevo's tram system has three lines. Here is a brief description of each line: Line 1 (Tramvajska linija 1): This line is the main line of the Sarajevo tram system, connecting the Central Railway Station (Trg Austrije) in the city center to the Ilidža area. It passes by some major streets and landmarks, including the Velko Atrichi Sports Hall (Sportski centar Asim Ferhatović Hase) and the University of Sarajevo. Line 1 is the longest line, with a total length of approximately 9 kilometers. Line 3 (Tramvajska linija 3): This line connects the central railway station in the city centre with the district of Orašťnica (Otoka). It passes through some busy commercial and residential areas, including the Sarajevo National Theatre (Narodno pozorište Sarajevo) and the Sarajevo City Hall. Line 3 is approximately 6 kilometers long. Line 6 (Tramvajska linija 6): This line connects the central railway station in the city centre with the Bjelave district. It passes by a number of historical buildings and cultural institutions, including Sarajevo City Hall and Sarajevo National Museum. Line 6 is approximately 3 kilometers long.
