Why read Agatha Christie when you can live it?
与其阅读阿加西.克里斯蒂的小说不如亲身体验一把?
Wood burning stoves and etched glass panels onboard evoke a time of Parisian art deco sophistication from the Roaring 1920s.
车厢中的燃木炉火和透光镶嵌玻璃,精致无比,充满了上世界20年代的巴黎装饰风格。
No shrinking violet, once author Agatha Christie’s detective Hercule Poirot stepped aboard through her pages, the Orient Express’ fame was assured. Shared bathroom facilities take the gloss off an otherwise glamorous train whose inaugural journey deposited travelers in what was once Europe’s wealthiest city, known then as Constantinople.
