Ticket Booth In Yangon Central Station

Shot at Yangon Central Station in Yangon, Myanmar.

Finished walking around the platform, I came back to the station building. The architecture built over 60 years ago was old fashioned and massive. Its hallway had a high ceiling. And a ticket booth was in the center of the hallway. Looking around, there was no automatic ticket machine here. Those who wanted to buy any tickets have to buy them at the ticket windows. A kind of time table was hung above the windows. According to it, the train seemed not to run frequently.

A man wearing a longyi stood at one of the ticket windows. Watching him, it took time to buy the ticket. He was in deep conversation with the salesperson. Because there were not so many trains here, I thought it was easy to buy. Perhaps, he didn't buy any tickets and just was there for small talk. The tranquil atmosphere in the station made me think that.
