Book Description

National Geographic's Classic style political map of Southeast Asia features clearly defined international boundaries, thousands of place names, waterbodies, airports, major highways and roads, national parks, and much more. Also shown are the region's updated infrastructures, including major oil fields and pipelines; high-speed passenger railway lines; and even China's spaceport, Xichang Satellite Launch Center. Significant cultural and historic sites, such as Angkor, Cambodia, a renowned UNESCO World Heritage site, also appear on the map. The tasteful color palette, shaded relief, and bathymetric data make this map as attractive as it is functional. The map is encapsulated in heavy-duty 1.6 mil laminate which makes the paper much more durable and resistant to the swelling and shrinking caused by changes in humidity. Laminated maps can be framed without the need for glass, so the fames can be much lighter and less expensive. Map Scale = 1:6,497,000 Sheet Size = 38" x 32"
