EDITORS COMMENTS
This map print depicts the Overland Route to Cairo, an alternative to the traditional Mediterranean voyage for travelers heading to Egypt. Dated April 19, 1928, the map illustrates the Orient Express's railway line traversing Western Europe, Turkey, North Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, and Egypt. The meticulously planned network eliminates the need for a Mediterranean voyage, offering a more direct and intriguing journey through Asia Minor. The map reveals the railway's progression from Europe through the Balkans, Bulgaria, and Romania, continuing on to the Black Sea and the Bosphorus Strait. The route then passes through Anatolia in Turkey, followed by the Middle Eastern countries of North Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine. The map also highlights the part of the railway line between Tripoli, Lebanon, and Haifa, Palestine, which was still under construction at the time. The Overland Route to Cairo represented a significant achievement in the development of international railway networks during the early 20th century. It offered travelers an opportunity to explore diverse cultures and landscapes, bridging the gap between Europe and the Middle East. This map serves as a testament to the ingenuity and ambition of the railway engineers and planners who made this remarkable journey possible.
