Japan at 1:1,200,000 on an indexed, waterproof and tear-resistant road map with topographic and tourist information, published by Reise Know-How as part of their highly acclaimed World Mapping Project. The map is double-sided to provide the best balance between a good scale and a convenient size sheet, with a generous overlap; Tokyo and Nagoya are included on both sides. The southern islands including Okinawa are on an inset. Names of the islands and main towns are in both scripts, with names of smaller towns and villages, provinces and geographical features given in the Latin alphabet only.

Highly tear-resistant and 100% waterproof map "Japan" from the series world mapping project.

Reise Know-How maps are characterized by particularly sturdy plastic paper, which can be written on like paper, even with a pencil. The cardboard envelope is removable, making it easy to put the card in any pocket. A protective cover is not required. The cartographic representation focuses on the most important information for travellers and is particularly easy to read. Instead of shading, coloured layers of elevation are used.

Written by Central Asian expert and experienced travel writer Sophie Ibbotson, who is Uzbekistan’s Tourism Ambassador to the UK, this new, fully updated fourth edition of Bradt’s Uzbekistan remains the definitive practical travel guide to an increasingly liberal destination – Central Asia’s most populous country and the heart of the Silk Road – offering more detail for independent travellers than any other guidebook, sharing first-hand descriptions of everything from UNESCO World Heritage sites and one of the world’s best collections of Soviet avant-garde art, to riding across deserts by camel and cooking plov (lamb pilaf).

A perfect spring or autumn destination, Uzbekistan is unexpectedly packed with diverse experiences, from the Silk Road cities of Bukhara and Khiva to glorious Islamic architecture. Explore the Kyzylkum Desert by camel, ski amid the western Tian Shan mountains, overnight by the Aral Sea to search for the bizarre saiga antelope, visit ancient desert fortresses in Karakalpakstan, or gawp at Registan’s unmissable sound and light show. Stroll through Bukhara’s old town, then take tea at a chaikhana teahouse or shop in the Chorsu Bazaar, trade’s beating heart in Tashkent; or marvel at medieval tiled tombs in Shah-i Zinda and the magnificent 19th-century palace of Kokand ruler Khudayar Khan.

This new, fully updated fifth edition of Bradt's Oman offers all the information needed to plan a visit to this rapidly developing Arabian nation, written by experts Tony Walsh, a veteran of Oman's travel industry, and Diana Darke, who originally worked for the Omani government in 1980 and has remained acquainted with the country ever since. All parts of the country are covered, including areas not featured by other guides, and Arabic script for town names is detailed to aid on-the-ground navigation and exploration. New for this edition are coverage of the restored medieval walled town of Manah, with its labyrinth of passages and mud-brick houses, developments at the UNESCO site of Ubar at Ash Shisr, and in Muscat the fort at Mutrah, with its panoramic views over the Corniche.

Also covered are the seasonal cloudforest in Dhofar in the south, the mountains of the north that leap from the plains to over 3,000 metres, the two major international airports in Muscat and Salalah, transport and road developments making access from Dubai quicker and improving the journey into the Wihibah Sands, and new hotels and restaurants, from luxury to simple. For outdoor enthusiasts, adventure tourism, extreme sports (including caving and the via ferrata climbing route) and catamaran sailing are all covered, as well as birdwatching. Whether trekking little used mountain paths or visiting small villages wrapped around date oases, browsing the local market or enjoying the weekend camel and horse races, Bradt's Oman is an indispensable companion.

From the famed Rub Al Khali, the world's largest sand desert, to the northern coastal town of Qurayyat, it offers everything you need for a successful trip.

Bradt Travel Guides er et engelsk forlag med over 200 titler som i hovedsak er skrevet for turister som bruker offentlige transportmidler og egne ben. Bradt har vunnet mange priser for reisehåndbøkene sine som er kjent for å være sterke på mindre kjente reisemål som ikke er overfylt av turister. Forfatterne sørger gjerne for å gi bøkene en personlig ”touch”, og er ikke redde for å være subjektive. Dette gjør dem både til tider morsomme, i tillegg til å være informative og enkle å lese.

Bradt Travel Guides var svært tidlig ute med fokus på viktige emner som økoturisme og den reisendes ansvar som gjest I et fremmed land. Reisehåndbøkene gir råd til hvordan man best kan nyte en eventyrlig reise borte fra turisthordene samtidig som man gjør det mulig for lokale samfunn og natur å dra nytte av besøket. Bradt er guidebøkene til mindre kjente reisemål du ikke vil finne hos andre utgivere. De er gode følgesvenner for eventyrlystne med ryggsekk på et gjennomsnittlig budsjett.
