Two years ago, we made a visit to Spain. When we reached to Madrid we need to take a train to Toledo but we missed the train because we couldn't understand Spanish people J They really want you to speak only Spanish, but I don’t know anything in Spanish so we couldn’t understand each other :(... The next train was after an hour. And we should wait for it.
The central station was an exotic place. It provides an indoor plaza, a tropical garden. It covers 4000 square metres and has more than 500 species. Garden includes tropical species, plants and fauna. It provides really an exotic atmosphere in train station.
There are several cafes around it and tall palms reach to the roof. This tropical garden has a good view from upstairs but the most interesting thing that took my attention was little turtles. At first sight I think that these were not alive, because they didn’t move. I watched them and I noticed that they were alive :))...

There are lots of small and big turtles and it was so interesting. This place gives a good opportunity to spend your time while you are waiting your train. It was such an interesting garden I’ve ever seen.
