Turkish Baths

For the truly discerning traveller, nothing can surpass the experience of a genuine Turkish bath - the Turkish variant of a steam bath or sauna. For rail travellers in Europe, train holidays do feature all the comforts of home, but there's something to be said for truly immersing yourself in another culture.
In the Turkish bath the treat will begin by relaxing in a warm room, heated by a continuous flow of hot, dry air. Bathers then move to an even hotter room before splashing themselves with cold water. After a full body wash and a massage, bathers finally retire to a cooling-room to relax and refresh themselves for the next stop on their journey.
