Public Transportation in Riga

One of my favorite things about traveling abroad is the using transportation in the local city. I like to observe whether the buses are on time, how the trains are, how noisy the trams are, and how the locals behave with their transportation. In Riga there has public transport services are provided by buses, trams and trolley-buses. Which are cover the whole city. The thing that made me excited is trolley-buses because I never see them before, the structure is same the bus but on the roof there has the electric pole to connected with overhead line to draw the power to run, it's look like trams without rail. Here, there has various trams, whether very classics and look modern, but it doesn't matter because all types are good and inside was good plus the important thing are on time! Even sometime, a little bit late but is acceptable and the last thing is the fare is very cheap.
