Hong Kong Crumpled City Map from a collection of street plans of major cities printed on soft, very lightweight (approximately only 20g) & yet extremely tear-resistant & 100% waterproof material, specifically designed to be scrunched & crammed into pockets, handbags & backpacks, either on its own or in the pouch from the same material provided with each map. Creases are a fully intentional part of the quirkiness of the Crumpled City maps – the more battered they are they better they look. Parks & other green spaces are highlighted, as are metro stations, & important buildings are named. Each map also highlights 10 recommended “soulsights”, imaginatively chosen to present the essence of each city rather than the most obvious tourist destinations. The accompanying index placed next to the map lists locations of tourist interest: selected streets & squares, monuments & historical places, museums & galleries, parks, etc. Whilst cartographically these Crumpled City maps provide perhaps not the most precise representation of the street network, they are handy for sightseeing, light & durable, can be used as a table cloth when picnicking in the Luxembourg Gardens, Hyde Park, the Retiro or the Central Park, or just as an unusual decoration… Selected cities are also presented on more colourful ‘junior’ maps, specially designed for children. Drawings highlight not only important buildings & famous locations but also places which will specifically appeal to children: toy shops, bookshops, best ice cream, etc. Each title has a list of the recommended not-to-be missed locations with addresses &, where available, websites. To see the full list of cities covered by this unique series please click on the series link. ...
