Venice Pocket Precincts is your curated guide to the city's best
cultural, shopping, eating and drinking experiences, with each
precinct covering the best of Venice's sestieri. Venice is an
improbable, inimitable masterpiece. Emerging from the Adriatic as
if by miracle, its storybook palaces and churches burst with
top-tier frescoes, monuments and Insta-snapping tourists. But the
place known as "La Serenissima" is more than this. Slip into its
calli (streets) to discover the city lived and loved by locals; a
maze of dirt-cheap, canal-side bacari (Venetian bars), progressive
restaurants and artisan studios crafting everything from handmade
jewellery to provocative ceramics. As well as detailed reviews and
maps for world-famous attractions through to hidden treasures,
Venice Pocket Precincts also includes a selection of field trips
encouraging you to venture further afield to Padua, Vicenza and
Verona. And all information has been considered in light of the
coronavirus pandemic. Slip this guide into your pocket and head off
on an adventure, experiencing authentic places in Venice and
surrounds like a local.

'AN ORIGINAL AND TIMELY ODYSSEY INTO OUR MYSTERIOUS UNDERWORLD . .
. THRILLING PROOF THAT SCIENCE AND IMAGINATION SHARE THE GROUND
BENEATH OUR FEET' Nicholas Crane, presenter of BBC2's Coast and
Great British Journeys If you were to peel back the Earth's surface
like an orange, then take a sly peek underneath, what extraordinary
things would you see? Subterranea is where the world's remaining
mysteries are yet to be found. For millennia, across nations and
cultures, it has been a hotbed of fantastical stories. It's where
humans have kept their most sacred treasures and their darkest
secrets. It's where we have found evidence of our past and may, at
some point, find an escape route for our uncertain future. But what
would we find there today? From the underground cities of
Cappadocia to smuggling tunnels on the US-Mexico border, caves full
of tiny blind dragons and a seed vault located 1300km inside the
Arctic circle, Subterranea demonstrates that the world below our
feet is every bit as vivid and evocative as the world we see around
us. Lavishly illustrated and replete with maps and photographs of
little-explored locations, Subterranea is the unique, untold and
utterly unforgettable story of our planet from the inside.
Mountainous Kea, with stands of evergreen oak trees, olive and
almond groves, many springs, and beautiful stone-laid paths, is
ideal for hikers. Many paths are way-marked and lead to pretty,
isolated beaches Anavasi has been at the forefront of developments
in Greek cartography since the publication of its first map in
1997. It remains the only Greek cartographic company to use
scientific methods for the collection of field data and map
composition, using GPS and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for
the organization and processing of data in over 100 thematic levels
and creating databases on a national scale. Anavasi was the first
company to establish the use of the Greek Geodetic Reference System
(EGSA 87) for maps (Topo series), and with the use of GIS was able
to project on the maps precise coordinates for WGS84, the worldwide
reference system for GPS. With a series of informative pamphlets
and seminars, Anavasi has contributed to spreading knowledge of
reference systems and other matters of interest
