By National Geographic Maps - Reference China Classic [Laminated] (National Geographic Reference Map) (2012) [Map]

National Geographic's Classic style map of China is one of the most authoritative maps of the country. Coverage also includes bordering areas of neighboring countries, the entire Korean Peninsula, Taiwan, and some Japanese Islands along with the East and South China Seas. This map features thousands of place names, including primary and secondary towns, accurate boundaries and clearly defined international borders, transportation infrastructure such as airports, highways, and railroads, and the Great Wall. Physical geography details include shaded relief and cartographic patterns are used to depict glaciers, sand, and swamps.

The map is encapsulated in heavy-duty 1.6 mil laminate which makes the paper much more durable and resistant to the swelling and shrinking caused by changes in humidity. Laminated maps can be framed without the need for glass, so the frames can be much lighter and less expensive. Satin Lamination features glare-reducing qualities that provide a soft sheen. A satin finish is best suited for backdrop prints and displays receiving indirect, bright lighting.

Ready-to-Hang maps have rails at the top and the bottom to keep the map flat against the wall with two loops on the top rail for easy hanging. A package of wall hooks and nails completes the set.
