Review of Saint Petersburg City Streets

The only map of Saint Petersburg that has survived my frequent trips to the Imperial City is this one from the B & B City Streets series. It is of primary interest to tourists since it covers only the city center in detail and it has Latin characters in all text. The map is virtually indistructable due to each panel being a seperate plastic laminated map segment which is waterpoof and folds effortlessly with one hand. It includes Metro Line diagrams, street locator index, text in 5 European languages, major attractions, yearly temp. and rainfall graphs, and regional map panels. This is the map I recommend to both first time and seasoned Saint Petersburg visitors due to it's comprehensive but easy to read format. If I was able to take only one map, it would be this one unless I needed a map in Cyrillic. All Cyrillic maps I've been able to find are thin paper that wear out and tear at the folds after a short period. The scale of 1:11000 is perfect for displaying the city center large enough to see the detail which would be desired by a walking tourist.
