21st November 2022

In my five years of staying here in Hong Kong, last Sunday was my very first time riding on a tram. Because I was always hesitant to ride on it before, especially when I am just alone. I never tried riding on it so I don't know how to, lol. Since I was too curious about it, I pursued this plan last Sunday.

Unexpectedly, the fare for all tram trips was free for some reason. This wasn't the first time, as it sometimes happens, especially when there is something special celebrated in this country, Hong Kong.

That gave me the chance to travel from one place to another. And only if I have no other plans that day, I would definitely travel to all destinations of the tram vehicle since it was free.

The last time I traveled for free here was last Christmas, not on the tram, but on the train. This is one of my favorite parts here. When everyone is free to travel to different places in one day.

I am certain that my European and American friends know what a tram is since Europe and Western countries had this kind of vehicle first. For those who don't know, it's a rail vehicle operated by a network that runs on a tramway. Just refer to the photos above. It is more like a combination of bus and train. Other countries call this trolley.

It was a fun experience and I want to do it again and again. Besides, the tram fare here is much cheaper compared to buses and trains.

I uploaded my short tram trip on my YT channel just in case you want to watch 😊.

So that's how my weekend went. At the end of the day, I settled in one of the best promenade here while waiting for the

Hmm, it does look like a fun ride, we don't have such a thing in this part of Nigeria, I'm not even sure if it's in any part of Nigeria, lolz. It's really good to know that they run foot free sometimes, that's just so incredible!

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful experience with us Jane ❤️.

I don't know if something like this happen here in my country, never heard of it. But I would have taken the opportunity to go wherever I want without paying any dime for it.

Hi! I'm glad it coincided that it was the free tram day. Yes, in Europe we use tram, bus or metro a lot. But we don't have free day ever 🤣 It always has a cost. My city is small so we only have bus and tram, but no metro stations like other Big spanish cities like Madrid, Barcelona or Bilbao. It is another form of public transport quite useful and fast because it is more agile than a bus that has to stop at every traffic light and when there is a traffic jam you arrive late to places. And being outside you can go looking out the window and enjoying the views, unlike the subway.
I liked that you recorded your experience on video to share it with us😊🚋
