حول
حقائق سريعة: Over 750,000 people pass through the main concourse every weekday, making it one of the busiest train stations worldwide. The famous celestial ceiling mural showcases 2,500 stars, but interestingly, the constellations are painted backward as if viewed from outside the sky.
النقاط البارزة: The terminal’s whispering gallery lets you share a secret from one corner of the arched ceiling to the opposite corner, 30 feet away. The main clock above the information booth features four opal faces worth an estimated $10 to $20 million each, making it a dazzling centerpiece.
نصائح من الداخل
- Wear comfortable shoes as the venue covers a large area and includes multiple levels.
- The best photo spot for the celestial ceiling is from the middle of the main concourse near the information booth.
- Skip dining at the more crowded spots and explore the less busy dining concourse underground for variety.
- Avoid rush hour to experience the whispering gallery without distraction.
