CONCISE AND COMPREHENSIVE: The map includes all major Christian sites visited, as well as additional popular sites, including neighboring Jordan - only what the majority of Christian tourists need/want to know. IMPORTANT NOTE: This is NOT a precise road map for a driver; it's for the big picture of the tourist.
CONVENIENT SIZE: The LAP MAP is small enough to open up on your lap and fit inside your Bible or backpack. It is an 8 x 11 two-sided map, folded in half.
HIGH QUALITY: The heavy-duty, glossy paper surpasses paper quality of other maps available; making the LAP MAP a wonderful keepsake, convenient to share with family and friends back home.
TRAVELS OF JESUS HIGHLIGHTED: Places visited by Jesus, as well as the Via Dolorosa Stations of the Cross, are displayed in red.
WHAT IS THE LAP MAP? The map is a one-of-a-kind clear, concise, and visually-appealing map of Israel - created specifically for Christian pilgrims.
"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!" Additionally, city/site names are typically spelled quite differently than the tourist's itinerary reads. The LAP MAP was created as an alternative to remove these frustrations.
HOW IS THE LAP MAP UNIQUE?
1. Quickly pinpoint and trace your itinerary route before, during, and after trip.
2. A convenient teaching tool for the tour guide in the bus.
3. A beautiful keepsake for remembrance and sharing with others.
4. Map Scales and Distance Chart presented in both miles and kilometers.
5. Familiar English spellings of cities and sites.
6. 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.
WHAT DO OUR CUSTOMERS SAY?
"Wow! I can use this to teach on the bus. This is awesome!" Pastor Rob Glickman, Horizon Park Chapel
"The map is an excellent guide and the most informative, quick and convenient I have ever used." Janet Phillips
"I wish I would have had it on my two previous trips!" Beverly Reuther
"I loved the convenience and the material the map was made out of. I actually spilled my water on it and it just wiped off. The other maps are so big and awkward in the little space that your trying to use them on, they tear and get crinkled and then they are hard to fold back up." Mary Drinkhall
