Now this is the way to build a train station or any other building, actually. It's gorgeous. The detail around the entrances and windows and across the top is superb.
And I would love to visit Sintra from what I've seen of the place...looks paradisiacal.
Love the portals... I must admit I've never seen that style before. It does however remind me of The Lord Of The Rings hahah. This building is another reason for visiting Lisbon! :-)
Há poucos dias postei sobre o Real Gabinete Português de Leitura, no Rio de Janeiro que possui este estilo manuelino, inspirado no Mosteiro dos Jerônimos.
Simplesmente magnifica! Que arquitectura tão linda. Não me lembro ter visto essa estação. Se vi foi há muito tempo quando era garota! Obrigada pela partilha;o)

I would never have picked it as a railway station.
the entrance portals look like horseshoes. may all who pass through them have good luck.
Yes, I thought they looked like very ornate horseshoes! Quite beautiful!
What a design! Why take the train. Just stare.

Wow.
Romantic is definitely a word I'd use to describe this building JM, it's all the feminine flourishes that make it a delight.
