By Train: The railway network covers a big part of the Greek mainland. There are express trains (Intercity) and regular trains. A characteristic privilege of the railway network is that trains cross locations of extraordinary beauty that only the passengers of the trains can admire, since these locations are often unapproachable by other means of transport. The stone buildings of the train stations are also very interesting and picturesque.
