Central Station Amsterdam, also known as Amsterdam Centraal Station, is the main train station in the Dutch capital. It is located in the city center, near the Dam Square and the Red Light District, and is the largest railway station in the Netherlands, handling around 200,000 passengers every day.
The station was first opened in 1889, and has since undergone several renovations and expansions, including a major renovation in the early 2000s which added a new wing to the station and restored the original facade. Today, Amsterdam Centraal Station is not only a transport hub, but also a popular tourist attraction in its own right, with its impressive neo-Gothic architecture and busy atmosphere.
The station offers both national and international connections, with trains running to many major cities in the Netherlands and beyond, including Brussels, Paris, and Berlin. Additionally, the station is a hub for local transportation, including trams, buses, and ferries, making it easy to get around Amsterdam and its surrounding areas.
