Japan has created history by building the world’s first 3D-printed train station — and that too in record time! The new station is called Takanawa Gateway Station and is located in Tokyo.

What’s super cool is that instead of using bricks and cement like usual, this station was made using 3D printing technology. Big machines printed out parts of the station, which were then put together like a giant puzzle. This method helped save time, materials, and energy.
The station is now open to the public and has a clean, modern design. It’s also eco-friendly and strong enough to handle lots of travelers every day. Japan hopes to use this amazing technology to build more such structures in the future!
Fun Fact: 3D printing is like drawing with a special machine that builds real objects layer by layer!
