| EYEWITNESS
GUIDES |
Eyewitness Travel Guides show what other guides
tell. Thbe guides are filled with color photographs,
cutaway images and detailed three-dimensional maps that
show significant buildings, museums and galleries and
briefly discuss major shops, hotels and restaurants.
In addition, the guides contain visual guides to currency,
tickets and communication systems. Organized by area,
the guides have great diagrams of major museums and
galleries. These guides are particularly appropriate
for upper middle class travellers interested in good
hotels, restaurants and shopping, but who also value
culture -- particularly art and architecture. Because
the guides are heavy on photos, art and design at the
expense of providing comprehensive general coverage,
those who are seeking depth of coverage are best served
by using this guide in conjunction with a text-based
guide.
