Details
Durable, laminated tourist map with street plans and tourist information - one of the many handy-sized Flexi Maps by this publisher, impressive for the amount of information packed in a small format. On the main map hill-shading shows the general relief, with selected peak heights and spot heights marked. Larger national park and game reserve areas are shown. Road detail includes intermediate road distances on main routes, and railways, major airports and major sea connections are marked. Unfortunately, the legend provides no road classification information. However an extensive range of symbols denotes points of interest, antiquities, cultural and historical landmarks, natural curiosities, reserves, recreational sites, etc. No latitude and longitude lines are marked.
On the reverse are street plans of central Johannesburg and Cape Town at 1:17,500. These show such features as places of interest, information centres, churches, mosques, hotels, notable buildings, post offices etc. One-way streets and railways are also marked. The maps are indexed for towns, districts, streets and places of interest as appropriate for the scale, and throughout the coverage 39 major attractions are highlighted and provided with brief descriptions. Some general notes for tourists are also included e.g. public transport matters, money, telecommunications, climate & tourist information resources.
