Granada Michelin City Plan 83 City Plans Michelin City Plans 9782067237001 Books Reviews


  • If you'll be visiting Granada as an on-foot tourist, you're probably better off with a map that the city's tourist bureau or your hotel provides because

    First, the map's copyright date is 2007 which makes it not completely current.

    Second, when opened to its fullest, the map measures 44" by 29", which makes it quite unwieldy.

    Third, it's northeast-oriented, so that direct north is at the upper left hand corner instead of at the top.

    Fourth, although its ratio is 18.5 cm, that's still quite small, especially when one's eyes aren't what they used to be.

    Fifth, it covers an area from Parque Nueva Granada in the north to Parque Technologico de Ciensias in the south, and from Cementario de San Jose in the east to Poligono El Florio in the west, which is far more than any tourist needs..

    Sixth, although there are no insets for the Cathedral/Plaza Nueva or the Albaicin tourist areas, there is a 13.7 cm one covering the Alhambra/Generalife complex.

    Seventh, if, however, you're in Granada for any other reason than tourism and/or if you're driving into or out from town, this map might be beneficial.
  • Not what a tourist wants, as most of its area is taken up showing roads in the vicinity of the extended suburbs of Granada. As a result, the downtown, Alhambra, Sacramonte, and old Moorish areas are shown in microprint. I blew up the central part on a color printer but other maps from local sources were what I used. Save your money.
  • A good purchase.
  • Michelin simply makes the best maps.
  • The service from this vendor - Agapea.com - was amazing ! Shipped from Malaga Spain, the map arrived 9 days later altho the est. delivery time was well over a month. For my purposes the map is perfect, showing the streets of Granada. As I'm disabled, I "walk" those streets in my mind as I read about them. Wonderful Michelin Maps!
