Antwerp Central Station (Belgium)
The Antwerp Central Station is one of the world's most impressive railway stations. The 'railway cathedral' was built between 1895 and 1905.
The railway complex is spread across over 400 metres (1300 ft), has two entrances, a historic domed building at the Astrid square and a modern atrium at the Kievit square.
A shopping centre and a diamond gallery with more than 30 diamond shops make it a shopper's paradise too.
While the main building was designed by architect L. Delacenserie, the huge glass vault is the creation of architect J Van Asperen.
