Shantou Map

Just got an email from my dad sharing this 3D Shantou Map website http://xz.st.gd.cn/. I have to say it’s pretty cool and will certain provide a lot of conveniences to tourists from other cities. I don’t think there is a English version yet and I doubt it will have one in a short term.

That map is such a sad fraud. Many sections are just cut and paste. The splendid old city–the only part of Shantou of any interest to tourists–is not represented at all. This is a cheap video-game corruption of reality. Avoid!
You are right. I posted it without browsing into too much details. A lot of places and streets are not in scale. But still, there wasn’t anything like it before. It’s better than nothing.
The Walmart?I think it is a little unrealistic…
