Berlin Hauptbahnhof, Germany
From series “Top 14 Most Astonishing Railway Stations in the World”Year: 2006.
The largest and the most modern railway station in Europe is the Berlin Hauptbahnhof. This station is two-tiered and has 14 railway lines. The building of the central Berlin station was built under the project of the famous architect – Meinhard von Gerkan in 2006. The first station has appeared at this place even at the beginning of the 20th century. Unfortunately, then came to the war and the building was absolutely destroyed. Today the station attracts its head-to-toe view. Its exterior walls are faced with glass panels. The building looks wonderful when the sun sets. Sunbeams reflect in its glassed panels.
From this railway station trains go to many European cities, such as Prague, Warsaw, Paris, München, Zurich and Amsterdam. Every year more than 1 600 commuter trains and trains come at this station. The Berlin Hauptbahnhof isn’t just one of the largest and the most beautiful stations, but also is the most ecology safe in the world. During the building there were used safe eco materials and even the information screens work from the solar radiation.
