I love maps!!
I have a drawerful of maps of Venice.
But over the years I've narrowed it down to a few favorites.

Rough Guide map is my all time favorite map!!
It's the most detailed, portable map.
It's made of a material that is virtually impossible to destroy.... it's waterproof and fold-proof...I haven't tried burning it.....
I've folded this thing at least a trillion times. In fact, I fold it down to a tiny square and jam it in my pocket.
The only down side...they are getting more and more difficult to find.
sigh....

it's actually a book....225 pages.
NOT portable....but necessary to look up every calli in town.
I have so much fun exploring this book...but it's impossible to drag around.
In fact, I usually don't even bring it to Venice....it just weighs too much!

and paper tears after it's been refolded a dozen or so times. Plus this map
has one of those hard covers that is glued onto a corner...making it impossible to fold down to a tiny square.
Do you have a favorite map of Venice?....please share with me!!
After all I'm a girl that can't have too many maps!
