£9.50

Indexed road map on durable, waterproof paper, covering the whole region, including the Suez Canal, from Gaza and Damietta on the Mediterranean coast in the north to the Ras Muhammed National Park at the southern tip. The map combines clear road and tourist detail with relief indicated by contours, altitude tinting, and spot heights for selected peaks. Road detail includes minor roads and 4x4 tracks. Intermediate driving distances are shown on many roads, some petrol stations are marked, and frontier crossings are shown. Railways, harbours and major ferry routes are shown and symbols depict airports and airfields. Swamps, coral reefs and seasonal rivers are indicated, regional boundaries and names, national parks and reserves are marked, and oil pipelines are drawn. A range of symbols shows hotels, campsites, hospitals, beaches, diving sites, antiquities, springs, oases, UNESCO sites, viewpoints and selected places of interest.

Latitude and longitude lines are drawn at 30’ intervals, and the map legend is in English and German.

SAMPLE OF CARTOGRAPHY
NB. Some elements of the cartography, e.g. minor roads and contours, are printed relatively faintly compared with other details such as major roads. Although clearly legible on the map, the lower contrast of these details may make them appear less obvious on the reproduction of the cartography presented here.
