Valencia Train Station is beautiful at first glance, and also in all its finely designed details. I love that last photo.Thanks.

This doesn't really compete with Valencia Station, and even less with the Sagradia Familia, but it is unusual. After all, how often does a city need to build a public elevator to take people from one street to the next? In Salvador de Bahía, the Brazilians solved the problem in style with the Lacerda Elevator:-

As for the train stations I’ve been to I think Kyoto Station impressed me the most

Grand Central is something to see as well

Prefer Grand Central.

Looks like something you'd find in Europe. Incredible.

It’s such a contrast from right outside it’s surreal

Some nice ornate gothic cathedrals, MLM. Sadly, the Fisherman's Bastion is spoiled for me because it looks so like a Disneyland creation.

Architects and town planners sometimes focus to much on street grids and stuff like that, but none of them until recently expected to have their work viewed from drone angle, so these photos are really catching architecture off-guard, showing us what we were never expected to see:-

^ Nice!

Here's the cinema where I saw Kubrick's 2001 when it came out:-

It's now a Grade 1 Listed Building, which means it can't be messed about with, (although it has been converted to a Bingo Hall).
