Tibet ITMB Map

ITMB delayed printing this map for six months in order to send a person into the region to locate the route of the new railway to Lhasa accurately. It took three years and repeated visits to the country, before we could get the locations and spellings of dozens of monasteries, mountains, and villages correct. This is an exceptional map! 

This detailed map of Tibet also includes very good insert maps of Norbulingka, the Lhasa Valley, Potala and Barkor.

The map is fully indexed and clearly shows international borders, disputed borders (always good to know), provincial borders and prefecture borders. The map also shows railways, motorways, main roads, connecting roads, minor roads and tracks. Clearly marked are cities, towns, villages and settlements.

One of the best features of this map is that it is shaded to show the different elevations throughout the country as well as showing the spot heights of the mountains.

We can laminate this map, which will allow you to draw on it in whiteboard marker or apply map dots to locations of interest without permanently marking the map. The lamination also makes the map very durable and protects against tears and stains.

To laminate this map we have taken the folded map and flattened it out before encapsulating it in high-quality 80-micron laminate, so please be aware that there will still be slight fold lines visible.
