Bangkok

Beautifully detailed yet truly pocket size, the MapGuides combine text and cartography using a patented folding process. This title divides Bangkok into 6 districts, each with its own fold-out map, with descriptions of the districts' best shops, restaurants, museums and local attractions.

No more struggling against the wind to fold back the extra large city map you picked up at the tourist office. The unique Everyman MapGuide series cleverly combines maps and text in an easy-to-use format, listing the best sights, restaurants and shops alongside fold-out maps of exceptional clarity. Each guide divides the city into sections and devotes 2 double pages to each of them. Sections are colour coded, and a small area map at the bottom of the page tells you where you are within the city, and within the guide. There are also 4 pages of useful information about the city at the front of the book, and a 4-page city-wide hotel section at the back; plus a street index and thematic index. Stylish, clever, practical and, at GBP5.99, very good value for money, a MapGuide is the indispensable pocket companion to your week end or short break away.
