Istanbul and Ankara are among the most important cities of Turkey. One being the Capital and the other being one of main tourist destinations and a mega city with the huge population. Many of the foreigners who live in Turkey need to make a trip to their embassies every now and then and have to travel to Ankara. Right now, fastest way to travel is by plane. There are rail ways available but they take almost 6 hours. Now, Turkey is planning to construct a new high speed railway that makes a trip a lot shorter.

This project is set to start after the upcoming election in Turkey. Hopefully, regardless of who gets elected, the project will keep going. The length of the rail way is going to be 344 Km long. With the speed of 350 Km/H you'll be able to travel between the cities in 90 minutes.
