1.0 out of 5 stars Cruel Joke, September 29, 2006

By	Gene E. Molander "Gene M." (California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This map is a cruel $9 joke by Lonely Planet: central area only, major streets only, selected hotels only. Maps in their guidebook are superior, or simply use Google Earth.

4.0 out of 5 stars Helpful, Compact, and Lamenated, August 7, 2002

By	K. Johnson (US/Asia) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Lonely Planet Bangkok: City Map (City Maps Series) (Paperback)

Easy to carry around and sturdy for it's lamenated. For it's size it can fit in one's small bag. The index of places of interest such as palaces, parks, Wats, bus stations, and other venues are listed. Necessity places such as embassies are very useful as well, especially as one is doing visa work to travel to neighboring countries. If you're a tourist and your survival Thai isn't very developed, this map will help you when taking taxis. Choa Praya River express stops are also included

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Water-Proof Map, April 1, 2007

By	Emil P. Dill (Honolulu, Hawaii) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My only criticism of this map is that it doesn't extend north enough to include the airport. I'm trying to gauge how far central Bangkok is from the airport and can't do it with this map. Other than that, it's nice....and since I'll be walking a lot, the water-proof factor is key.
