Keleti
The imposing Keleti train station is one of the most significant buildings in scenic Hungary. It's not just Budapest's main train station (as well as the biggest rail hub in the country) but also one of the most beautiful protected heritage buildings in the city. The station was designed by Chief Engineer Gyula Rochlitz who visited all the best railway stations in Europe in search of inspiration. Upon the opening of the Keleti railway station in 1884, its lobby was decorated with the works by the most famous Hungarian painters and the facade of the building was adorned with the sculptures of James Watt and George Stephenson, two British mechanical engineers who played a vital part in the development of the railway system. Both of the sculptures have survived to this day.
