Zürich - the main train station

The Zürich train station is the largest train station in Switzerland and hideously well connected to the rest of Switzerland and Europe

This façade of the Hauptbahnhof is decorated in a neo-Classcial style with a vertiable assortment of statues and decorations. Not only a focal point for transportation in Zürich , the train station is, appropriately, at the end of Banhnhofstrasse - littered, as it is, with an assortment of department stores and luxury stores such as Cartier, Gucci and Tiffanys.
