Austria is both an ancient country and a modern country. It was a powerful empire prior to the French Revolution (Marie Antoinette was an Austrian princess prior to her marriage to the king of France), and WW1 was strongly influenced by the Austro-Hungarian empire. The aftermath of that war resulted in Austria becoming much diminished in power, but despite WW2, its borders remain much as they were in 1918. That said, today's Austria is a lovely and safe place to visit. 75 years of peaceful neutrality has restored the country to prosperity and the country is loaded with picturesque villages, lovely mountain scenes, historic castles and palaces, wonderful churches, and museums galore.

This map emphasises the rail network that is the best way to travel around the country, but also shows motorways and ordinary highways, parks, scenic attractions, and connections to surrounding countries.

City plan Cape Town & Road map Garden Route Southern Africa.

An excellent map of Cape Town on tear-resistant Stone paper, covering the city in excellent detail, and a second full-sized map on the reverse side covering that portion of the country known as Cape Province; essentially, from Cape Town north to the Namibian border, east to the Transkei, and north to Potchefstroom. This encompasses the wine districts of Stellenbosch, the lovely towns of George and Knysna on the south coast, historic Port Elizabeth, the very interesting Transkei homeland, all of Lesotho, and the arid interior regions that resonate with history – Graaff Reinet, Bloemfontein, Kimberley, and Upington. One not-to-be-missed experience is Addo Elephant Park; another is Grahamstown; still another is Cape Agulhas, the southernmost point of land in Africa. An excellent and much-needed travel map!

Cyprus is a lovely Mediterranean island; a popular tourist destination for Europeans. It is also a very historic island, with roots going back to Phoenician times and probably before. Politically, the island is divided into Turkish-controlled Northern Cyprus and EU-member Cyprus, the southern two-thirds of the island. Most travel is to the southern portion, with numerous resort hotels and beaches lining the coast. This is also the most economically-developed part of the island, as the northern portion has not been recognized by anyone except Turkey, which still maintains a significant military presence in areas they control. It is possible for tourists to pass through the ‘green zone’ in Nicosia from south to north and back safely and efficiently. T

he north portion is, in my opinion, more interesting simply because it is less travelled. When we were visiting the island to research it, we spent most of our time driving mountainous roads, discovering interesting villages (and occasionally, military outposts), but we never felt fearful or were harassed by anyone. To me, the most fascinating part of the island was the very contentious Famagusta city area right on the border that is now an abandoned city covering many blocks of high-rises. We were able to drive through quite a bit of it before being waved off by Turkish soldiers. Regardless of politics, the island is a dream resort for anyone.

We have tried to be fair to both sides of this divided island; a wonderful place to explore or enjoy on a beach – North or South! Legend Includes: Roads by classification, Rivers and Lakes, National Park, Airports, Points of Interests, Highways, Main Roads, Zoos, Fishing, and much more...
