When construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway was nearly complete, the railway managers decided that the end terminals should look alike. So the first Vladivostok railway station built in 1894 was pulled down hastily and a new one in XVII-century Russian style was erected. The building looked quite like Yaroslavsky railway terminal in Moscow. During the Soviet period some constructions of the railway station had been altered; however, in 1990s the building appearance of 1912 was restored.
