Publisher's Synopsis
Fleximap Istanbul is a laminated, tear-resistant map which includes 2 indexed maps of Istanbul, the city's centre at a scale of 1:12 500 and the Istanbul area at a scale of 1:120 000. Each map is accompanied by a separate index, categorized for ease of use. Ferry routes, places of interest, public buildings and selected hotels are clearly shown. Detailed maps of the Grand Bazaar and Topkapi Palace are also included. A plan of the railway system features on the back cover for easy access.
In addition to the mapping, Fleximap Istanbul also gives a list - with descriptions and some photographs - of 26 recommended sights, divided by theme and linked to the mapping by numbered markers. There is also a handy information section with concise details on getting around, tourist offices, money, tipping, opening times, public holidays, telecommunications, emergency telephone numbers and climate.
