3.0 out of 5 stars good tourist map, July 28, 2001

By A Customer

I bought this map expecting a street map for the whole of Hong Kong, as I will be moving there in the near future. The map only shows streets & tourist attractions for Kowloon, Central, Wan Chai & Causeway Bay. It doesnt cover the west, east or south side of Hong Kong Island at all, so is of very little use to me.

The roads, shopping malls & tourist attractions are clearly laid out, and the map is laminated so would be durable (although you can't write on it). It also contains a walking tour and a list of emergency phone numbers. So, a good map for the tourist areas, but not a comprehensive map of Hong Kong.

4.0 out of 5 stars nice maps, but get the book instead, August 9, 2002

By A Customer

This is a nice map (actually set of maps of tourist areas and overview), but is is essentially the same as the maps that come inside the Lonely Planet Hong Kong condensed guidebook (inside the front and back covers). As I always had with me the condensed guidebook while in HK, the maps were superfluous.

2.0 out of 5 stars Map and We're still lost!, January 26, 2007

This review is from: Hong Kong City Map (Map)

First off if you want to know where big roads are in Hong Kong and like to stand out like a sore thumb with a huge map then this is a great map for you.
I found that the map didnt list any of the smaller streets. Was very big length wise and kind of a pain to use.
I picked up a tourist map at the info booth and it had everything that i needed. Even the small streets!!
