Starting in Afyon we see a city that was attacked within history, but now celebrates victory and has become a gateway for Turkey as a crossraods for railways. A stop in Aksehir sees a town where history is so ingrained that each train station appears like a museum, "afraid to wake up the history from its sleep". After travelling through Turkeys' widest plains, the final stop is Konya, 'the land of love'. Konya is a city that embodies modern life, yet retains its historical and religious culture, its beautiful temples and mosques, and its festivals, traditions and working lifestyles.

The journey on the Hijaz Railway is seen as travelling through the "meadow of the soul as there is no solace in the meadow of the world" and shows the importance of progression but also the preservation of history.
