Beautiful wall map showing bird’s-eye view plan of Jerusalem’s Old City & its immediate surrounding area, including Mount Zion, the City of David & Gethsemane. The buildings are drawn to scale with full architectural detail, viewed at a slightly oblique perspective looking northwards.

The map provides an excellent picture of this fascinating area, but it is not recommended as a street plan to be used whilst navigating the narrow lanes & alleyways of the Old City. The map was drawn in 1969, so any changes since that date, particularly in the area west of the Jaffa Gate will not, of course, be reflected. This title is also available as a wall map. ...
