Going up the Funicular

The other main attraction of our day in Como was taking the Funicular up to Brunate. You can see the path of the Funicular up the side of the mountain in this picture. If you squint, you can see the two cars going up and down. The two cars are on one cable, they share one track up to a point where it splits. It's like an elevator with a counterweight.

This time our car stopped at the intermediate stop, Como Alta. It's cute!

Fermata Como Alta

Riding in the Funicular, you can't help but get excited. Anteneh and Wahyudin both were able to get free tickets with their Lombardia tickets...

Chilling in the Cable Car

Here's a video of the drive wheel of the Funicular.



The end of the funicular is Brunate!
