Lonely Planet review

For a quick ride up some of the city's steepest hills, Lisbon operates three bee-yellow elevadores or ascensores (funiculars), which were originally water-powered, and a wonderful bit of 19th-century elegance. Perhaps the most charming ride is on the Elevador da Bica which creeps up to the Rua do Loreto through the Santa Catarina district.
