Rail station built in the end of the XIX century, it is decorated with marvelous coloured tiles (not the usual white & blue) and it is located just in downtown andused by suburban trains (steam trains not any more...)
The inside of the satiation is in the centre of porto. Inside is beautiful, looks really good. All the informations are visible.
A stunning entrance hall depicting various facets of Portuguese history make this well worth a visit. The work was done using tiles to create massive murals. Just stand and stare.
The station is famous for its tiles - and its true, its beautifull. Lets see. Tipical blue blue azulejos.
When you are in its hall you understand what you have read about it. Just have a good look on every wall
One must save some time for a short visit tp this beautiful, centrally located train station. The artwork is fantastic and will take you back to a time when train travel was a very elegant way to get around. Just stunning.
The ticket office was very helpful in finding me a train to Lisbon for 20 euros the day of. The tiles in the lobby are all about the history of portugal so go there with a guide!
In the entrance foyer of this rail station you'll find one of the most significant architectural beauties this wonderful city has to offer. The walls are covered from floor to ceiling (20 feet or more to the top) with beautiful hand painted ceramic tiles depicting the entire history of the city. I'd be exaggerating if I compared it to the Sistine Chapel, but it has a uniquely compelling fascination for the eyes, and I've never seen the like of it in a train station before.
The tile art in the main entry of this station is definitely worth a look! I was really blown away by how intricate it is. Also train travel is a cost effective way to get around in Portugal. We got a reasonably priced train from Sao Bento to Braga.
墙面上有大量的美丽彩绘磁砖,叙述各种故事,就算没有搭火车,也可以前来此处欣赏。车站本身不大,但很有味道。
