Prague[1]

Hloubětín (in Czech pronounced as /ˈɦloubjɛciːn/) is a Prague Metro station on Line B, located in the eponymous district. It was opened on 15 October 1999 as an addition to the previously opened section of Line B.[2]

History

This station was once a ghost station from 1998 to 1999. The station were in a state of suspended construction as the heavy industry factories it should have served were closed after the Velvet Revolution. Trains slowed when passing through the dimly lit station. As the whole industrial area was slowly revitalized, the station was finally completed.
