Cuba at 1:1,000,000 on an indexed map with MairDumont's special features to aid route planning and large street plans of central Havana plus five other towns and holiday resorts. A fold-out flap in the jacket gives an overview of the whole country highlighting popular locations, with the grid reference system in the margins making it easier to find places on the main map. A set of seven peel-on/peel-off stickers, removable without damaging the map surface, is provided for making selected locations more prominent when navigating.

Locations of interest are prominently highlighted, with separate colouring for picturesque towns or villages and for natural sites including numerous caves. Topography is presented by relief shading with spot heights and names of mountain ranges, lakes, marshes, etc. Along the coast numerous small bays are named and coral reefs are marked.

Road network includes many small local roads. Railway lines are shown and local airports are marked. In addition to the specially highlighted locations symbols show various other places of interest. The map also shows the country’s internal administrative boundaries with names of the provinces. Latitude and longitude lines are drawn at intervals of 30’ and 1º respectively. Multilingual map legend includes English.

The index is in a separate booklet attached to the map cover and in addition to towns and villages also includes mountains, lakes, rivers, national parks and sites of interest. Large insets show a street plan of central Havana, the Old Town and the adjoining districts, also Cienfuegos, Camaguey and Santiago de Cuba, plus the holiday resorts of Playas del Este and Varadero. Also included is a distance table.

• Please note: the same cartography is used in GeoCenter’s map of Cuba but without the special features, the jacket flap and the stickers provided in this edition.
