About these maps: Street maps covering a slightly smaller area than that represented on the Falk Extra edition, thus folding down to a more handy size (10 x 17cm). Some of them are drawn with a varying scale which, for clarity, presents the city centre at a slightly larger scale than the outer districts. Main landmarks & public buildings are indicated, also one-way streets, car parks & all the public transport facilities eg. tram & bus routes, U-bahns. These plans of larger cities include a separate map of the town centre at a more detailed scale & a diagram of the U-Bahn & the suburban rail network. The plans also show the postal divisions & have an extensive street index on the reverse side which, where appropriate, shows individual postal codes for each street. Also included is a smaller scale map of the city & its immediate environs, showing main roads & railways. Map legend

Falk Extra plans are folded in a standard way, where the whole map can be opened to view the entire area it covers.
