If your interest in Europe is not just limited to the beautiful countryside rolling by, then there's no better way to unearth a little of Turkey's history for yourself than by a visit to the Istanbul Archaeology museum. Established in 1881, it's one of the largest museums of its kind in the world, and contains more than 1,000,000 archaeological pieces from a diverse range of areas - the Balkans, the Middle East, North Africa, and even Central Asia. It's a fantastic place to lose yourself in and become immersed in some of the fascinating history of Europe - train holidays can be even more enjoyable with the knowledge of the land's past along the way.
