This beautiful railway station is located in the old city of Istanbul, close to the Galata Bridge, and can be reached directly by light rail T1. There are few people in this railway station, but it is more like a work of art. The whole building is very beautiful, and the inside is very empty. There is also a typical European waiting room, where several trains are parked, all of which complement each other and are so beautiful.

Known as the world's most beautiful railway station, built in 1890 was the terminal of the Oriental Express from Paris, near the Eminonu pier. Now the railway station has been stopped and become a tourist attraction. The waiting room has been changed into a revolving dance hall.

In fact, it’s pretty good, but if you are not familiar with the place of life, you still have to pay attention to safety.

Even without the murder of the Oriental Express, Sikel is a special presence in Istanbul. The exterior facade of the long red brick is more and more dazzling against the red background of the blue sea. In addition, the architectural style is different from Turkey's religious architecture, so that I see more mosques in front of me. There are not many people in the railway station, but there are many tourists who take pictures and stop there, which has become a kind of scenery. I heard that Sikel's spin dance was very traditional, but unfortunately I didn't perform during that time. I don't know if I have the chance to come back to Istanbul and see a spin dance here.
