Manila Street Atlas First Edition (Periplus Street Atlas) Paperback – February 27, 2009

I was surprise on how detailed this map is. I am really pleased with the quality of this map.This is a keeper and will last long.

Manila, the Philippines everchanging capital is a metro area with over 20 people, changing and growing at an chaotic and very fast pace. The idea of mapping the giant city and getting it accurate seems crazy. It would probably be impossible for European publishers - where cities don't grow too much and very hard for American publishers - for whom 6 times smaller and less chaotic Phoenix is a big fast growing city. But South East Asian based Periplus did a great job. The atlas is very accurate and has very few mistakes of little importance, despite being a first edition. The atlas is as good as the Periplus Bangkok, Jakarta & Singapore atlases and trust me, wild Manila is the hardest of them to map. So if you plan on doing travel on the chaotic streets of Manila, this atlas will really help you get where you want in this fantastic city.
