Beijing is on the must-see list for any visitor to China. This updated edition includes new information post-2008 Olympics, such as the new subway line (No. 4) that has just been opened, plus new information about further extensions and lines being developed.
The other side of the map is just as interesting. It covers the portion of the Great Wall of China that all visitors see, near Badaling, and also shows those sections that have disappeared over time, or have fallen into disrepair.
The map also shows the famous Ming tombs of former emperors, as well as the Marco Polo bridge on the western edge of Beijing, so-named in honour of the famous trader/explorer who set out from this point on his return trip to Europe.
This time, ITMB have printed their Beijing map in durable waterproof plastic that's printed on both sides.
Show LessGloss Laminate
Gloss laminate makes colours look more vibrant and stand out more, but is quite shiny (reflective). If you’re planning on using a marker of any sort, this is a better choice because it’s easier to clean. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Matte Laminate
Matte laminate has a smooth, non-reflective, very classy looking surface. I wouldn’t say it dulls colours, but it doesn’t make them ‘pop’ (I hate that I just used that word) in the way that gloss does. Matte can be drawn on with pencil (and erased), but is harder to clean if you use markers. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Canvas
Everything looks better on canvas! Something about the texture really makes prints look wonderful. It is quite expensive though. We use a very high quality 340gsm artistic matte canvas. Your canvas print will come rolled with a roughly 50mm white border to allow you to have it stretched or mounted however you wish.
