An excellent map. True it is large but with thoughtful planning, a trip can be made much more enjoyable by using it, first for planning and then for finding places to see and actually getting to them. That tiny Ermita, it's in the guide book but where? What town is it listed under? With the map you can find where you are going, accompany it with the Green guide book and you can find out all about it. Just wish the map was a larger scale to find the little roads that led to that lovely hotel we stayed at in the middle of nowhere.
Our original copy is now worn out and we are buying another one!
