A Bus Station

Kassel is one of my more favorite cities in Germany to visit.  One of the unique features that you come across....is the main bus station of town....which is at the Wilhelmshohe station of town (not the main hauptbahnhof or main station of town).

It is one of those odd features of the city.  This is a town with two significant railway stations, and this one being the minor one of the two.

So I draw your attention to the bus structure.  You walk out of the station and here is plenty of covered space for at least a thousand people to stand out of the rain, and wait on their bus.  The city-tram?  It stops right in front. 

Whoever sat and spent hours designing this concept.....did a brilliant job.  It's one of those structures in Kassel that I'd recommend you go and see (at least twenty significant features in town worth a two-day visit).
