Zemitāna iela 10 - Zemitānu dzelzceļa stacija

Zemitāni train station is one of 24 passenger railway stations inside Riga borders. After visiting Berlin back in August, I'm dreaming about Riga railway system to be at least as half as handy and efficient way of public transport like Berlin's S-Bahn, but it's far from reality. There are several main problems - too less stations; stations located inside industrial areas, away from living areas; too sparse train schedules; all routes stops at central station, and you have to buy new ticket and change trains even when the route continues on the same railway track. Zemitāni station was opened in 1889, this station building was built in Stalin times, 1953. [full_width]
