As tourism activities continue to deepen, people's interpretation of travel is no longer limited to sightseeing or superficial visits, but rather demands a deeper understanding of the history, geography, and culture of travel destinations. To meet this need, we have designed and edited this "Splendid China Travel Map Atlas," aiming to provide more meaningful information and offer personalized self-service for travelers.
The atlas is organized into 35 units, primarily based on provincial-level administrative divisions. The first unit is an overview of China, covering topography, climate, history, administrative divisions, and tourism. The remaining 34 units include maps of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities, city maps, and tourism maps; text introductions on geographical environments, climate, history, city profiles, and attraction details; and tourism information such as administrative divisions, population, area, local characteristics, attraction opening hours, transportation hubs, travel agencies, restaurants, shopping centers, and local specialties.
The atlas introduces 126 cities and 262 attractions, providing a total of 297 maps. The selection of cities focuses on historical and cultural landmarks and popular tourist destinations, while the selection of attractions includes not only traditional hotspots but also emerging tourist spots. The images are sourced from the Guangdong Provincial Cartographic Publishing House's archives. To meet the growing demand for international exchanges, the maps and key text are presented in both Chinese and English.
