The train station, a driving force in its neighborhood
Historically, the station district was built around the railway station and barracks. From the construction of the first hotels to welcome travelers to today's brand-new business district, its architecture illustrates the city's economic development. Its history reveals its involvement in national history, for better or for worse. Whether you like the design or not, urban planning has a dual functional and symbolic dimension. This district is a shining example of this, and is the subject of this visit.
