Central Station in Amsterdam
About
The Central Station of the Netherlands' capital deserves special attention because it is the sole station in the city. Its spectacular neo-renaissance style, warm palette of the facade, and very beautiful exterior result in a cohesive architectural masterpiece. If you have never seen Amsterdam, starting your acquaintance with the city from here is a great idea. At first glance, it may seem that both towers of the station have clocks, but this is not entirely true; there's a clock on the right tower only, while the left one features a weathervane indicating wind direction. The station comprises 15 tracks and 6 platforms, and it also hosts supermarkets and fast-food outlets. The Central Station made a significant impression on the Japanese, which led to the creation of a twin station in the Japanese capital.
