Strange Maps

Thanks to MapSkip it's not really much of a secret anymore that I am permanently fascinated by maps. I always loved to look at maps, trace routes across them, read the foreign-sounding place names... As a young boy I spent many hours traveling across the beautiful, large maps in my parent's world atlas, imagining myself in all those exotic places.

If you are an unreconstructed map-fetishist like me, you will love this site: strange maps

This site is a treasure trove of very unusual maps with very thoughtful descriptions and I found it to be quite an inspirational place for the tired creative mind.
