WHAT IS THE JEWISH LAP MAP? The map is a LETTER-SIZE clear, concise, and visually-appealing map of Israel - IT IS NOT A DETAILED ROAD MAP FOR DRIVERS; IT IS THE "BIG PICTURE" FOR TOURISTS, created specifically for Jewish travelers. "WHY" THE LAP MAP? The answer is one word - "frustration!" Many Israeli travelers are frustrated and challenged trying to figure out where they are, where they just came from, and where they are going next. Most maps of Israel open up quite large, making them cumbersome to use, and contain thousands of points of interest they must sift through. Basically, "You can't see the forest for the trees!" The LAP MAP was created as an alternative to remove these frustrations. HOW IS THE JEWISH LAP MAP UNIQUE? 1. Quickly pinpoint and trace your itinerary route before, during, and after trip. 2. Includes addresses, phone numbers, and concise descriptions of numerous sites of interest. 3. Includes major Israeli highways, key train stations, and bus terminals. 4. A beautiful keepsake for remembrance and sharing with others. 5. Map Scales and Distance Chart presented in both miles and kilometers. 6. Familiar English spellings of cities and sites. 7. Notable synagogues in Jewish Quarter of Old City, Jerusalem. 8. Extensive Temple Mount Detail, inclusive of the three construction efforts (Solomon's 1st Temple, the Hasmonean extension, and Herod's 2nd Temple expansion), as well as detail of the Temple Mount's present-day use. "AN EXCELLENT TRAVEL GUIDE FOR ANYONE TRAVELING TO ISRAEL... MORE THAN JUST A MAP ITSELF, THIS MAP PROVIDES HISTORICAL GUIDANCE IN A SIMPLE YET CONCISE FORMAT, PACKED WITH INFORMATION, EASY TO READ AND TO STORE." BRUCE GREGG
