HOW TO READ A MAP...

IN SPAIN WE CAN USE A LARGE SCALE MAP CALLED "MAPA TOPOGRÁFICO NACIONAL". THE REPRESENTATIVE FRACTION ON THESE MAPS IS 1:25000 OR 1:50000. THEY ARE DETAILED MAPS WITH A HUGE VARIETY OF PHYSICAL AND HUMAN ELEMENTS TO STUDY!

THEY ARE GREAT TO GET INFORMATION ABOUT SMALL AREAS AND EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT AN EXPERT ABOUT THE PLACE, IF YOU KNOW HOW TO READ THEM, YOU WILL LOOK LIKE A NATIVE INHABITANT, AS IF YOU WERE LIVING THERE FOR AGES...

AS I DO NOT HAVE A VIDEO ABOUT THAT TYPE OF MAP, I HAVE CONSIDERED THIS ONE A FUNNY AND ENTERTAINING WAY TO LEARN HOW MAPS IN GENERAL CAN BE READ... ENJOY IT!

IT SEEMS THAT I AM HAVING PROBLEMS TO DOWNLOAD THE VIDEO, SO BE PATIENT AND MAYBE NEXT TIME...

SORRY FOR THAT AND KEEP WATCHING THIS BLOG, IF POSSIBLE!!
