BESKRIVELSE:
Following the so-called Arab spring of a few years ago, northern Africa
experienced much turbulence. Egypt experienced the overthrow of the government,
the installation of a radical religious-oriented replacement, and the
installation of a radical religious-oriented replacement, and the installation
of military governance. Tourism plummeted. Most map publishers discontinued
their maps of the country. Five years later, Egypt has stabilized and tourism is
growing. We feel that the time is right to re-introduce our ITMB map of Egypt.
This version focuses on the portions of the country that have been re-opened for
tourism, which means from the Mediterranean coastline south to the Aswan Dam.
The portion further south remains closed for the moment, as is the border
crossing with Sudan. We have also unrest, as the border areas with Libya remain
very unstable. However, we have provided a large inset map of Egypt, covering
everything, in the area of desert. We have also added a listing of Egypt's Top
tombs. The other side of the sheet is a detailed map of Cairo, with an inset of
the Giza Pyramid complex just to the west of Cairo, and another inset of the
Cairo region showing all the known tombs west of the Nile River south to Helwan.
The back cover is a schematic map of the rapid transit system of Cairo. There is
a third inset, showing Alexandra and other associated urban areas along the
coast. The maps is printed on stone paper, which is waterproof, durable, and
long-lasting. It is also biodegradable. Scale 1:1.000.000, Cairo 1:12.000.
