4th edition January 2015. Beijing in scale 1:23.000 The other side of the map is just as interesting. It covers the portion of the Great Wall of China that all visitors see, near Badaling (scale 1:280.000), and also shows those sections that have disappeared over time, or have fallen into disrepair. As well, the famous Ming tombs of former emperors is also shown, as well as the Marco Polo bridge on the western edge of Beijing, so-named in honour of the famous trader/explorer who set out from this point on his return trip to Europe. This time, we have printed our Beijing/great Wall map in durable ITM plastic; printed double-sided.

China, as a country, is very popular with travellers. However, China is also a very large geographical entity and showing the entire country on one map results in a scale that reduces the amount of information that can be shown. The most visited part of the country is the south, with rapid train access from Hong Kong and major airports at Guangzhou and Shanghai. Travel to China is also increasing as more international airports are opened.

The regional map covers one side of this double-sided map; the other contains an updated map of Guangzhou (formerly Canton). Lan and I visited this city in February and were surprised at how open and modern the city is. In comparison with Beijing, the political overtones are much reduced, and Sun Yat Sen is the hero. The city is also a major train hub, with two major stations handling traffic, and six bus stations arranging transportation to nearby cities.

The former French-dominated region of Indochina evolved into three separate countries in the early 1950s. Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia still retain strong ties and it is easy to travel from one country to another. Each has its particular charm, with a Top Attractions list highlighting the most popular attractions. Side 1 concentrates on the southern portion of the region and includes an inset map of Ho Chi Minh City; the second side covers the area from Sien Riep in Cambodia to the Chinese border areas of both Laos and Vietnam.

An inset map of Hanoi is one this side. The region is prospering after many years of civil unrest, is friendly, safe, and easy to reach since Covid restrictions were removed last year. The new Chinese-built rail line through northern Laos to Chiang Kong in Thailand, and to Vientiane, Laos, is shown for the first time. This line connects with the Chinese rail system leading to Yunnan, but is not shown as the route is still regarded as a military secret by China. At the moment, its purpose is to move freight from China to ports, but it is probable that passenger service is also possible. The map is printed on waterproof stone paper for durability and to hold up in extremely humid conditions.

This new edition of Bradt's Sri Lankan Wildlife has been fully updated to reflect all the most recent developments relevant to visitors to this beguiling island who come to watch wildlife. Whale watching, now a major part of Sri Lanka's wildlife experience, is covered, and so too is the improved visitor access to some of the national parks. With a general increase in visitors over the past decade, more entrance gates have been opened to popular national parks and access improved to others.

Sri Lanka is home to elephants, leopards, bears and water buffalo and boasts one of the highest species densities of marine mammals in the world, with populations of blue whales and sperm whales off the coast proving a compelling draw. Sri Lanka is one of the few destinations in the world where you can be out at sea whale watching in the morning, then spend the afternoon in a national park watching leopards and elephants or visiting a rainforest. A balanced, all-round natural history guide, ideal field guide and armchair read, Bradt's Sri Lankan Wildlife is illustrated with colour photographs of species and includes maps charting animal habitats to aid identification.

It is an ideal companion for general wildlife travellers and wildlife enthusiasts who want some background reading on the island's natural history, and is written in an accessible, easy-to-read style by an expert who visits Sri Lanka at least once a year.
