Turkey - Barry Winkleman

Turkey has always occupied a strategically important position, linking Europe and Asia. This has led to a fascinating cultural diversity which makes Turkey an important travel destination.;This physical map of Turkey is in the large scale of 24 miles to 1 inch. The map stretches from the Aegean and Bulgaria in the west to include parts of Syria, Iraq, Iran, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia in the east. To the north is the Black sea with the Mediterranean to the south. A system of layer colouring is used to show relief, overlain with specially designed symbols which indicate the great physical diversity of Turkey. Areas of salt lake, dry salt pans, rocky desert and ancient lava flows are all included in the base information.;Based on the most up-to-date source material, all communications are clearly depicted, including the new motorways around Istanbul. There are five levels of road classification, railways, ferry routes and international and local airports.
