    Nyugati Station (Nyugati Palyaudvar) was built at the end of the 19th century and constructed by the famous architect Gustav Eiffel, which was a specialist of ironwork. The stations façade is still very impressing, whereas the interior seems to be quite run down.

    We did see the one with the Mac Donalds
    in it and we wondered if the other one would
    be such a fine example of architecture as well.

    And it was. 'Kéleti palyaudvar' opened it's doors
    in the same year as the opera , 1884.
    That period some big monuments were
    raised. The market hall came three years later
    as well as the parliament.

    The east station is impressive for it's size
    as well as it's elegance..
    In that period Budapest had about 700 000
    citizens.
    A giant statue with a lady accompanied by
    two bearded men riding half horses half fish
    decorate the top of the building.

    For sure worth a picture.

    At that time taking the train was not for the
    common people. What I mean is , it was
    chique to take the train...

    And where do you think mister and missis
    waited for their train? Right in the gold leafs
    blotted cafetaria.

    The 'Keleti-Eastern Station' has a nice one.
    They don't serve anything special here , but
    it is the atmosphere that dwells in these
    places where people are waiting.

    Everybody another destination another purpose.
    Do they use the piano in the middle sometimes?
    I wonder... the pinguin brought a very nice coffee.

    In the station there is also a tourist office.
    If you arrive there it is the perfect place to get
    some information or to buy a Budapest card
    or to book a tour.

    The impressive building of the Nyugati Station (Nyugati Palyaudvar) was build beween 1874 and 1877 by the Eiffel Paris company. It is a typical example for the complex ironwork of Eiffel.
    Right next to the main entrance of the train station is a Mc Donald's restaurant, which is said to have the most beautiful interieur of any fast food restaurants in the world.
