My journey to Turkey started with a scenic 3 day train ride from Tehran to Ankara costing around 60USD it was relative good value and passing through some amazing landscape. The trip consisted of:
1. Iranian train from Tehran to East side of Van Lake2. The ferry across Van Lake
3. Transferring to the Turkish train on the western side of Van Lake towards Ankara
