Train travel changes how you experience a destination. Instead of dealing with airports or focusing on the road, the journey becomes part of the trip.

As you are not driving or checking directions, you can either take in the scenery or switch off completely with a book or music.

Once on board, you can settle in and simply watch the world pass by. It is an easy way to see more of a country without constantly packing and moving on. When we visited Japan, we spent hours on trains watching the landscape shift from green fields to small towns and house styles you do not really see back home.

With that in mind, Feet Do Travel shares some of the best scenic train journeys around the world to add to your list when planning your next trip.
