Map of Lisbon, Portugal. The accordion-fold pocket size travel map
includes an integrated surface tram & metro stations. Coverage

Map 1:340,000 Portugal Map 1:3,000,000 Dimensions: 4" x 8.5"
folded, 8.5" x 32" unfolded Lisbon, benefiting from an influx of
funding from the EU, has reemerged on the world stage as a
destination for those seeking the cultural experience of Southern
Europe. While it still has a patina of wear and retains an air of
shabby chic, renovation and new development are mixing the past
with the present to create an alluring juxtaposition of hip
boutique hotels in old medieval quarters. The magnificent Praca do
Commercial by the river Tejo is the center of the city and reflects
the atmosphere of this historic maritime center. Heading east,
you'll walk through the Alfama with its Moorish past, and up the
rising hillside to the dominating presence of the castle of St.
George. The pastel houses of the Bairro Alto line up like sunwashed
Easter eggs. There's a terrific panoramic view from the park on Rua
de San Pedro that shouldn't be missed. Additional must see visits
are to the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, with one of the best art
collections in Europe, and to Belem to see the Cultural Centre, and
the Mosteiro dos Jeronimos, the monastery commemorating Portugal s
seagoing superiority. Take the metro D line or a taxi up to the
Parque das Nacoes, home of Expo 98 and now a splendid outdoor vista
with shops, restaurants and one of the most stunning Aquariums on
earth, the Oceanarium. The STREETWISE (R) Lisbon map, including the
Lisbon Area map, pulls all of these sites plus hotels, and metro
stations together to help you navigate and enjoy your visit to
Lisbon. The Lisbon Region map will guide you on day trips west of
the city along the beautiful Costa Estoril to Cascais, Estoril and
Sintra. And finally, a map of Portugal facilitates further
exploration of the beautiful countryside. Our pocket size map of
Lisbon is laminated for durability and accordion folding for
effortless use. To enhance your visit to Lisbon, check out the
Michelin Green Guide to Portugal which details sites and
attractions using the famed Michelin star-rating system so you can
prioritize your trip based on your time and interest. For a
selection of the best restaurants and hotels, buy the red MICHELIN

REVISED 2023 Streetwise Budapest Map is a laminated city center map
of Budapest, Hungary. The accordion-fold pocket size travel map has
an integrated metro map including lines & stations. Coverage
includes: Main Budapest Map Front 1: 17,000 Main Budapest Map Back
1:11,000 Budapest City Center Map 1:11,000 Millennium City Center
Map 1:17,000 Budapest Metro Map Dimensions: 4" x 8.5" folded, 8.5"
x 27" unfolded People say Budapest is the Paris of Central Europe.
Maybe that statement is true because it combines a combination of
western luxuries, architectural beauty, and cosmopolitan European
traditions. But this baroque city is still connected to its Eastern
European heritage with the steaming baths, incredibly complex
language and lusty cuisine. Budapest straddles a curve in the river
Danube which bisects two distinct parts. The east side is known as
Pest and the west side is known as Buda, hence Budapest. It's a
very logical, well laid out city. Castle Hill is the premier
destination for visitors and contains many of Budapest's most
important monuments and museums, and great views of Pest across the
blue Danube. Pastel houses lining cobbled streets and stone
balustrade overlooks give this citadel a fairy tale quality, while
bullet holes from the unsuccessful 1956 uprising pockmark many
buildings. The main map of Budapest covers a large part of the
central city in detail and is fully indexed with hotels, sites,
architecture, metro stations and parks. The City Center inset map
expands the old city grid and enables you to stroll the old streets
and absorb Hungarian history and culture at your leisure. The inset
map of Budapest Metro facilitates your travel throughout the city.
One example of the importance of on site research: when this
Budapest map was first conceived in the early 1990 s we ran into a
unique problem with sudden unannounced street name changes. Streets
named after heroic Socialist revolutionaries were changed without
notice. The streets were renamed after heroes of the Hungarian
National Liberation. Other maps who rely on out of date documents
for updating still reflect the old street names. Imagine publishing
a map and unknowingly using names like Karl Marx Ave. and Lenin
Square. Whoops! Fortunately, with our STREETWISE (R) Budapest Map,
we adhered to a policy of physically researching and updating the
city, thereby avoiding these sorts of mistakes. Our pocket size map
of Budapest is laminated for durability and accordion folding for
effortless use. For a selection of the best restaurants and hotels,
buy the red MICHELIN Guide Main Cities of Europe. For driving or to
plan your trip to and from Budapest, use the Michelin Hungary Road
and Tourist Map No. 732.

with individual height points and all of the official 'Trig'
points. Tour & Trail attention to detail includes our useful
symbol range including viewpoints, picnic areas, petrol stations,
bar/restaurants and parking areas where you can pull off the road
safely. You will easily identify springs, caves, sports grounds,
cemeteries, churches, chapels, lighthouses, towers and forts,
camping areas, wind turbines, hotels etc. We have ensured that all
