Adjust font size:

Starting from Tuesday, visitors who fly from or land at Shanghai's Pudong International Airport will feel free to take copies of a bilingual-versioned Map of Shanghai, designed as a new "Name Card" for the eastern Chinese metropolis.

 

According to local Xinmin Evening News reports, the first batch of 300,000 maps of Shanghai has been put on shelves at the airport's entrances and arrivals, and another 700,000 copies will be added later this year.

 

Designed and produced by the Shanghai Surveying Institute, the Chinese-English maps of Shanghai give bilingual introductions to the city's main roads, transport network, hotels, shopping sites, and locations of foreign consulates. Major tourist attractions are also shown in three-dimensional pictures.

 

Reports say such maps will also be available at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport and Shanghai's railway stations.

 

Similar bilingual maps of Shanghai are also in production, including Chinese-Japanese and Chinese-Korean ones.
