In the historic centre of Porto is the São Bento railway station. This building was constructed over a number of years, starting in 1904, based on plans by architect José Marques da Silva. The large panels of around twenty thousand azulejo tiles were designed and painted by Jorge Colaço. The murals represent moments in the country’s history and the multi-coloured panels depict rural scenes showing the people of various regions. The vestibule is covered in azulejo tile, framed by pilasters.
