Dear friend and bookseller 

In this edition of the SaltWay catalogue, we are 

delighted to welcome on board Royal Botanical Gardens 

Edinburgh Publishing, whose gorgeously created books 

beautifully complement our client Kew Publishing’s 

leading list on botanical interest, study and art. 

Also, joining the SaltWay fleet, Al Astar brings 

to us extraordinary and absolutely unique photodocumentaries 

on the Mosque in Mecca and those 

pilgrims, clerics and guardians who attend to and 

worship at this most holy of Islamic sites. 

SaltWay has, for some years, represented Grange 

Publishing - who are the official publishers of Premier 

League and other leading international football clubs 

Annuals; so we are delighted that their new sister 

company, Aspen Books, will also now be with us 

bringing a very fresh approach to soccer and other 

sports publishing. 

And from all our other wonderful and carefully curated 

client publishers there is yet more fascinating, unique, 

engaging, informative and charming new titles in which 

we very much hope you find real interest. 

With best wishes

This forest of arches in the Mezquita at Córdoba captures the visual 

drama of a city which, in the 10th century, became the prosperous 

capital of an important caliphate. Bu the architectural reference to 

oriental aesthetics glosses over the fac that this one-time grand 

mosque was later converted into a Roman Catholic cathedral. Visit 

Córdoba as part of Routes 13 or 14 (photo © Bjeayes). 

Sofia 

Córdoba 

After a five-year gap, Sofia makes a welcome return to Europe by 

Rail. It features on Route 48, newly created for the 15th edition of 

the book. Riding the 14 tram routes which criss-cross the city is a 

fine way of taking the pulse of Sofia life (photo © Tupungato).

Lviv has been under Habsburg, Polish and Soviet control. Today it is 

part of Ukraine and the end point of Routes 26, 49 and 53. This is the 

eastern side of the main market square, with a fine mix of Rococo and 

Renaissance architecture. In 1998, the square was inscribed on UNESCO’s 

World Heritage List (photo © Tainar). 

Hamburg 

Lviv 

The Speicherstadt (warehouse district) in Hamburg, its brick 

Gothic style redolent of the heyday of the Hanseatic League, 

dates from the end of the 19th century. This great port city on the 

River Elbe features on Routes 25, 28 and 29 (photo ©minnystock).

Notes 

ADULT TITLES 

The rail journey from Hamburg to Budapest can be completed in a long 

day. The sole direct service between the two cities takes just under 14 hours 

for a journey of about 1,300 km. It rea ly does take in four capital cities in a 

day. Travel a l the way through if you wi l, but the great majority of travellers 

wi l stop off en route, usua ly at one or more of the fo lowing cities: Berlin, 

Dresden, Prague or Bratislava. On this journey from the banks of the Elbe 

to the Danube, there is a strong sense of swapping the cultural realm of 

northern Europe for that of Mitteleuropa (Central Europe). 

Trains over this entire route run at least every two hours throughout 

the day. So, if you do break your journey along the way, you’ l find a wide 

choice of onward services.

Fast track alternatives 

If you are in a hurry to get from Hamburg to Budapest, there is an alternative route which 

track south through western Germany to Bavaria, and then continues through Austria to 

Vienna and beyond. It gives a slightly faster journey time, but always requires a change of 

trains along the way (normally at Vienna). 

Bear in mind, too, tha there are overnight possibilities covering parts of this route. 

There is a nightly sleeper service from Hamburg to Vienna (from where it’s just a short hop 

on to Budapest in the morning). A happy innovation for 2019 has been the reinstatement 

of the direct night train from Berlin to Bratislava and Budapest. 

The Hungaria 

The direc train from Hamburg to Budapest is a Eurocity service ca led the 

Hungaria. It has run from Berlin to Budapest for over half a century; only 

in late 2015 was it extended to start from Hamburg. Cast back to the Cold 

War days, and the Hungaria carried East German families off for summer 

holidays in Hungary — where Lake Balaton was a favourite destination. It 

was also the train tha transported government officials and party stalwarts 

carrying fraternal greetings between the Warsaw Pact capitals. The Hungaria 

was much favoured by spies too. In the 1980s, it still carried through carriages 

from Sweden to Yugoslavia, both non-aligned countries, and the train was 

a good spot for discreet exchanges of inte ligence as i trundled through the 

central European countryside. 

The Europe traversed by the Hungaria has been utterly transformed 

over the last 30 years. The Iron Curtain has gone and borders have 

melted. That’s not to say that you’ l necessarily be able to travel from 

Berlin to Budapest without once being asked to show your passport. In 

the northbound direction this rail route is one that has been much used in
