9 Most Breathtaking And Beautiful Train Stations in The World

Haydarpasa Terminal, Istanbul:

The palatial Haydarpasa Terminal is perched on the banks of the Bosphorus in the Kad?koy neighborhood. The site was chosen for the terminus of the Baghdad Railway and the Hejaz Railway in 1904 and the neo-classical building was completed in 1909. The station looks European for a reason—the Anatolian Railway brought on German architects Otto Ritter and Helmut Conu, who employed German and Italian stonemasons to sculpt the impressive building.

Tanggula Mountain Railway Station, Tibet:

At 5,068m above sea level, Tanggula is the world's highest train station. It is found on the Qingzang railway line, which runs from Qinghai to Lhasa, in Tibet. A few years back, Telegraph Travel's Fionnuala McHugh embarked on a 4,000 mile rail journey from Hong Kong to Lhasa, including a stop at Tanggula.
