Hello everyone, I hope you are well 😀
Today my photographic visit took place at São Bento Station in Porto,Portugal.
Porto de São Bento Railway Station in Porto was originally known as Porto Central Station. It is a station on the Minho Line, which serves the city of Porto.
It is located in Praça de Almeida Garrett, in the Historic Center of Porto.
São Bento station has become an icon of the city of Porto.
The interior of the station is decorated with the famous tile panels. The station is the work of Porto architect José Marques da Silva.
The station provisionally began operating on November 8, 1896, but was only officially opened on October 5, 1916.
In 2017 it was considered a property of public interest.
The station's main atrium is full of tiles of great historical significance. The tiles occupy an area of around 551 m² and tell different stories from the North of the country.
Other aspects worth highlighting are the covering of the tracks and the beautiful facade. These structures were built by Marques da Silva, with French influence.
The towers that support the structure have French influence.
In 2004, the station had eight circulation routes and had a public information service. In 2011, the number of routes was reduced to six.
Trains enter the station due to limited space.
The city of Porto has so many points of interest for tourists and even Portuguese people to discover.
The station gets lost in its corners of history and structures.
Today the aim was to discover the history of this fantastic train station.
I hope you enjoyed sharing, see you in the next post 😉

I really apologize for the oversight, the photographs are really mine. But to tell a little about the history of the sites, I looked at some information on the Internet. I'm new here at Hive, so I wasn't aware of this information yet. I apologize and I won't repeat it again.
Thanks.
