Beautiful station. Not much else going on but it is a lovely building and the toilets are clean! Has an interesting '10 most beautiful stations in the world' exhibition.

Designed in French Beaux-Arts style and completed in 1916, Maputo's central railway station is testament to a time when the railways were at their highpoint early 1900s. Train stations in those days almost had the same prestigious status as a cathedral. Those times are clearly over. The final blow for the Mozambican railways came after independence in 1975, when an exodus of qualified personnel took place and the railway system almost collapsed. Though the station is still operational (three lines for transport of passengers remain) it is not longer a mass transportation hub. People in Mozambique prefer to take buses. The main bus station Junta is way out of town.

A definite must to visit if/when you're in Maputo....as you walk in you may be met by Charles who will offer to be your guide, for a tip, and you can choose to accept or decline. If you accept, Charles personal stories of how he went to study economics in Cuba, sponsored by the, then, socialist government, before being called back early, before graduating and has worked as a guide at the station since then....very interesting. The station is beautiful and you can walk around and visit the historic restaurant for food or drink - a very cool place. You can also pay 100 MTZ to enter the museum, which is well worth it and walk along the interior of the old Belgian train. It's, cool and relaxed and conjures up images of a colonial past.

A nice old train station built in colonial style. There are a lot of information telling the story of the building and the history of Mozambique. You can stroll around and discover the building and tracks and with a little luck a train will fill the station with life. In front of the building the busses spit out a lot of people and a small market has established. It’s full and crowded outside but quiet inside.

A must visit if you’re in Maputo. Historic train station that takes you back to the bygone romance of train travel. Visit the museum and learn about the history of one of the most beautiful train stations in the world. Loved the architecture. Across the station are some excellent examples of Pancho Guedes architecture.
