The Love of Trams

From Spiegel Online: France Rediscovers Its Love of Trams. France isn't the only one. Freiburg, one of my favorite German cities, also was building new trams in the 1970s. Now Freiburg is easily accessible by tram, with the center actually best reached by tram or bicycle since there isn't much space for parking. All the main streets of the downtown are pedestrianized, although trams use them too. The trams are also really cool - modern, sleek and quiet.
