Braga then and now

In the past, the buildings didn't use to have more than two floors, but now it's different, the buildings have 10 floors and more. Although the houses didn't have electric light, they had candles. Now we have electric light and the candles are just for decoration.

The clothes, 50 years ago, were very classic and the women couldn't wear jeans or skirts, just dresses. Now everyone wears what they like, without rules. In the important dances, the women wore big hats to impress their friends.

The most popular transport in the past were the tram and the carriages. Although in those days the cars were just for the rich families, now everyone has a car.
