National Geographic's wall map of Greece and the Aegean is one of the largest and most detailed maps of the area. The signature Classic style design uses a bright, easy-to-read color palette and stunning shaded relief. Coverage includes mainland Greece along with areas of bordering Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria and Turkey. Surrounding waterways, like the Aegean and Ionian Seas are shown with depth curves and soundings along with hundreds of islands, including Crete, Rhodes and Euboea. Also shown are thousands of place names, accurate boundaries, national parks, ruins and major infrastructure networks such as roads, highways, airports, railroads, canals and ferry routes.
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.
