railroad terminal

美味棒棒糖

很欧洲的火车站，有上百年历史的老建筑了。规模不大，却很有特点。黄白主色调的色彩给人端庄干净的印象。站台只有楼梯没有自动扶梯的，拿行李的旅客有点不方便。

Looks great both inside and outside, remains one of the landmarks of Vladivostok. Since my first encounter with the Terminal 40 years ago I consider it the place where the city heart's beating.

Beautiful building. The royal blue Golden Eagle Trans Siberian Express stretched out to greet us along with a band and attendants with champagne. How magical is that? I realize anticipation of our long train ride to Moscow likely colored my experience of the railroad station, but even in retrospect I thought the building exterior and interior were beautiful.

You read so much about the terminus of the Trans Siberian railroad you expect so much . That said it was a very nice tiny railway station by European standards, with old suburban trains and long distance trains arriving casually during the day

First of all, the terminal itself looks pretty neat and is worth visiting. Across the street there's a status of Lenin pointing towards Japan and, according to the legend, saying "Onwards!". On the backside of the terminal you can get to the sea terminal from where you have a nice view of Vladivostok harbor and the bridge and also a sundial/ time of year indicator.On the terminal itself you have a locomotive from WW 2 as a memorial and near it is the 9288 km mark from Moscow which indicates the end/start of the mighty Trans-Siberian railway. It can be packed with tourist in the summer months though.Now this terminal left the best impression because as I was descending down the stairs to the marker and the locomotive the sound system started playing old soviet marching songs and since the place was swarming with newly arrived tourists from the boat the whole place seemed hectic and it was a kind of atmosphere of boarding the trains to the front while a marching band plays on. Got the goosebumps I must admit. Also in the building is the only RentaCar I've found (VladRent) so that's another plus!

This is the end or beginning of the Transsiberian railroad. There is a special sign to memorize the distance between Vladivostok and Moscow - 9288 kilometers. A traveller can take a short ride to one of the nearest Tanssib rail stations ( or at least Aeroexpress to the international airport for one way fee USD 7-9).

Very nice character to the building it's self. I was taking pictures, cause I'm a train buff. Some Security guy with no teeth kept telling me not to take any pics......kept taking he finally went away.

The building is very beautiful, it was built by the Italian architect. However, inside it is the usual railroad terminal.

If you are in Vladivostok its worth seeing the train station, the building is quite nice architecturally, and inside it has some nice paintings on the high roof. The platforms are easily accessible so if you like trains you can get close to all the trains in the station. You might only spend about 30 mins here but you can get some nice photos and as its fairly close to the centre of Vladivostok its worth seeing.

extremely well kept, it looks more like a museum. on the platform there is an old train and a monument indicating the lenght of the transiberian rail... have to take a photo to celebrate the 9000 odd km travelled

There are steps up and down to get to the tracks and street. Be prepared to walk. The murals and decorations are exceptional

Vladivostok Railroad Terminal building is an absolute copy of Yaroslavsky Railroad Terminal in Moscow. It's a kind of a joke - people have a long journey from Moscow to Vladivostok across the whole Russia, the trip lasts for about a week and then passengers see the same terminal as they started from. There is also a pillar at the rail terminal with the number 9288 on it - it shows the distance from Moscow to Vladivostok which is 9288 kilometers. Marine Passenger Terminal whith a small fontain inside (just like in Oslo) is nearby and you can see the bridge across the Zolotoy Rog bay from there. Before the bridges were built Vladivostok railroad terminal had been (and still somehow is) one of the main symbols of the city.

The terminal is housed in a beautiful building that is definitely worth seeing. Be sure to look up as the paintings on the ceilings are beautiful!

Nice place to check out. Has a rustic feel to it. After viewing go up the hill and get a fresh cup of Kvass to warm you up :)
