  Marble paintings are great This is main station of Porto. The station itself is not at all grand but very simple. There are huge walls covered with marbles and they have historic scenes painted on it. These paintings are really good and each one has a story behind them.

  Beautiful station with questionable toilets. The ticket office assistant was very helpful. Helped me purchase tickets to Lisbon and told me which ones I needed.

  Beautiful. It was built in 1903, remembers 19th-century Paris because of the mansard roof. Has the traditional Portuguese azulejo panels of historic scenes. Trains still stop at this station which is renovated. Alive history, worth visiting.

  Amazing station. Both the elaborately decorated hall with typical black and white tiles as well as colored paintings above it. The tunnel portals containing all the switches are also interesting. Too bad that the buildings around and above the tunnels are not renovated, there would be beautiful views from cafés and hotel windows. It looks very desolate now.

  The most beautiful train station I have ever seen. The entrance being the most stunning with approximatley 20,000 azulejo tiles, dating from 1905–1916. Wow. If only they still built them like this
