Is this sentence correct gramatically? 


"This picture was taken outdoor of the railway station." 

I think it is not. [or I don't think so]

How can you explain to someone the reason why ["reason" means why.  Use either one but not both] it is not correct.

Please let me know if my sentences are awkward or incorrect. Thanks.


This picture was taken outside of the railway station. is the most natural form.  


"outdoor" is an adjective.

"outdoors" is an adverb or noun.


"This picture was taken outdoors of the railway station" is not wrong but awkward.

It is incorrect because you need a preposition to describe the photo, and "outdoor" is an adjective, not a preposition. You must say: This picture was taken outside (of) the railway station.
