Yangon Central Railway Station ((ビルマ語:ရန်ကုန် ဘူတာကြီး) (:jàɴɡòʊɴ bùdàdʑí)), located in downtown Yangon, is the largest railway station in Myanmar. It is the gateway to Myanmar Railways' 3,126-mile (5,031 km) rail network whose reach covers Upper Myanmar (Naypyidaw, Mandalay, Shwebo), upcountry (Myitkyina), Shan hills (Taunggyi, Kalaw) and the Taninthayi coast (Mawlamyine, Ye). The station was first built in 1877 by the British but destroyed by the retreating British in 1943 from advancing Japanese forces. The current station designed in traditional Burmese architectural style, making prominent use of indigenous tiered roofs called ''pyatthat'', was completed in 1954, designed by U Tin. Yangon Central Railway Station has been designated a landmark building since 1996. In December 2007, the Yangon city government announced a master plan that will relocate Yangon Central to a satellite town, East Dagon, from downtown〔 at an unspecified date. ==Lines== The following lines pass through or terminate at Yangon Central Station: * Yangon Circular Railway * Yangon-Mandalay Railway * Yangon-Mawlamyaing Railway * Yangon-Bagan Railway * Yangon-Aunglan-Bagan Railway * Yangon-Pyay Railway 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yangon Central Railway Station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
