1.0 out of 5 stars what a disappointment, July 23, 2003

By	Paul C. Graves (Iraq) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This map comes as a single sheet (as most maps do) however only one side is printed on. All of South Korea is represented and highlights the various interets in the country. I am surprised that while roads and highways are represented on the map they are NOT labled. Furthermore I am equally surprised that an extremely poor map of Seoul is given with very little detail. The roads in Korea can be confusing and with no labels you are being set up for failure if you try and drive here. No subway map is given and what a shame as Seoul has a great subway system but many of the maps in the subway stations are in korean. You would be better off printing a map off the internet than wasting your time with this map. What a sham!

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Map, July 8, 2006

By	Sweet Pickle "Pickle" (Wichita, KS USA) - See all my reviews

I enjoyed the map but was disappointed. Places of battles fought during the Korean War are not listed. I bought the map so Korean War Veterans could use it to discuss what happened while they served. Have to mark the places with a pen to have for details afterwards.

If you are planning a trip and/or just want to see due to reading history - it is OK.
