Railway station in Massawa

Original Text

It is a station built during the Italian era. It feels a little ruined, but it was spectacular, so I think it's a good idea to visit it together with the surrounding tourist attractions. The back side of the station is a railroad track, but people live in a bare building in front of the railroad track, and it is illegal to take pictures. Please be careful.
