The most populous country in the world and one of the cradles of civilization, China is a leading destination for global travelers. National Geographic's East China Adventure Map will lead you not only on your exploration of famous cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou but also as you travel to hundreds of natural, cultural or historical points of interest, including those away from major tourist hubs.
The eastern half of the country includes the most heavily populated areas, including all of the megacities. Also covered are the Yellow, East China and South China Seas; the islands of Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao; and the entire Korean Peninsula.
Find your destination with the user-friendly index of cities and towns or look for pinpointed areas of interest like national parks and preserves, beaches, ski areas, caves, archeological sites and Buddhist Temples. Among the World Heritage Sites in the area are the Great Wall, Terracotta Warriors, Forbidden City, Mount Tai and South China Karst.
Navigate the country using the mapped road network, showing motorways, major and secondary roads complete with distance markers. Get to hidden gems in rural areas with the help of smaller roads, railroads and ferries. The map is the perfect complement to National Geographic's China Traveler's Guide or any other guidebook to the area. Adventurers seeking a map covering China in totality may prefer National Geographic's China Adventure Map.
Every Adventure Map is printed on durable synthetic paper, making them waterproof, tear-resistant and tough

Gloss 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.
