Centraal Station Amsterdam

Worth visiting!

Busy as heck, but a striking place  — 2 years ago

A classically 19th century pile, to be sure, but somehow less oppressive than some of the other train stations of that era that I’ve seen—feels sleeker somehow, and its location on the water makes it the prime way to get into the city whether by train or by air via Schiphol and transit from there. Hope to see it again whenever I make a return visit!

My favorite (or at least most familiar) train station

I love taking the train from the airport, stepping out onto the street, and taking a happy look down the canal… it’s always great to be in Amsterdam.
