Customer Reviews

Map to Nowhere
I was excited when I received the South Korea/Seoul map, but none of the streets have names and none of the highways are numbered so it is no good if I want to drive somewhere.

Good if you don't have a map
I like this map. I have used others from the same publisher, so the format was very familar and easy to use. However, this map doesn't include greater Seoul. For instance, it doesn't have the entire subway systen on it's subway map. The subway stop that I want to use, and the part of "greater Seoul" that I will visit is not on this map. I will buy a second map.

Truncated and outdated map of Seoul
This map inexplicably only shows maybe 3/4 of Seoul. Plus, it is outdated. For example, the map still shows ChunGaeChun as an elevated road when the elevated road was demolished and a beautiful natural stream was put in its place 3 years ago as part of a massive Seoul beautification project. My guess is the map is at least 7 years old and maybe even 15 years or more. Given how fast Seoul is changing, this map is very antiquated.

Areas north of Insadong and south of Dogokdong is almost completely missing. Only large streets are shown and important, albeit small, roads are almost completely missing.

This map provides a good overview of Seoul. But I wouldn't use this to as a navigation tool.
