[quote=GRIZ326,232140]I have the Collins China map. It is good for getting a sense of where things are and relative distances. Mine has seen tremendous use in planning my trip this summer. The scale is 1:5000000 so using a mapwheel is less than perfect, but still helpful. http://www.amazon.com/China-Map-Independent-Travel-Series/dp/0004490940/ref=pd_bbs_sr_5/104-2475763-0099145?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1177513690&sr=8-5 As Jabarootoo pointed out, you will have to get your local maps on the ground and importantly, your Lonely Planet guide has basic maps. Finding a detailed map in both English and Chinese can be a bit challenging and unless you read Chinese, a Chinese only map won't be very useful to you. BRING A COMPASS, you might be surprised at how useful it can be within a city.[/quote]
