Description

Map Jerusalem & the Holy Land, by ITMB
Map is printed on waterproof & tear resistant paper.
Jerusalem is one of the most important cities in the world, being the fulcrum point of several of the world s religions. This map covers the city itself, with an expanded inset of the historic walled city and an inset map showing Israel's growing rail network. Users should take note, however, that they will encounter barricades upon occasion. For Christians, the route of the Via Delarosa, or Stations of the Cross, is shown. All churches and mosques are shown. The Temple Mount is included, although at time of printing it is reserved for Muslims only. The reverse side of the map concentrates on what Christian believers think of as the 'Holy Land.' By necessity, this includes Jaffa, Tel Aviv, Acre, and Haifa, which are notable historic cities, but the focus of this map is to emphasize such points of interest as Bethlehem, the Sea of Galilee, Nazareth, Nablus, the River Jordan, and other centers of interest to pilgrims and students of history. Included are the divisions between Israel and Palestinian West Bank and Gaza because they are there. It should be noted that the entire border area with Jordan is controlled by Israel, although it's technically within the West Bank territory. Map also includes an excellent inset map of Tel Aviv. Scale 1:10,000 / 1:225,000
Map measures approx. 36" x 24" when unfolded.
