In March 2019 we embarked on a train journey from Ankara to Erzurum, one of the most beautiful and scenic routes in Turkey. The 27-hour train ride offered breathtaking views of mountains, snow, and quaint villages along the way.

As soon as we stepped into the train, we were mesmerized by the spacious and comfortable seats, making it the perfect way to relax and take in the picturesque scenery. With large windows, we were able to admire the rolling hills and snow-capped mountains, dotted with traditional villages and homes.

As the train chugged along, we watched life unfold in the small towns and villages, where locals went about their daily routines. From the train, we saw children playing in the snow and farmers tending to their flocks. These glimpses into rural life were fascinating and gave us a deeper appreciation for the rich culture and traditions of Turkey.

If you’re looking for an unforgettable travel experience, I highly recommend taking a train journey through Turkey. The scenic route from Ankara to Erzurum is just one example of the many incredible train rides you can embark on in this beautiful country.
