Postcards with Maps

I have found a few postcards that have fun maps. See picture. These are more than pictures of one particular place. This one I have sent to some teachers to help their students to understand where my home ground is relative to the bigger picture. I have another, not pictured, that is a more artistic rendering of a global map. Wondering what other kind of Map Postcards postcrossers have sent?

I send this one a couple times

A mí me gustan mucho los mapas porque me ayuda a conocer otros lugares y situarlos en en la bola del mundo :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:, así que yo también envío mapas.
Algunos de los que he enviado son estos: // I really like maps because it helps me get to know other places and place them in the ball of the world :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:, so I also send maps.
Some of the ones I have sent are these:


Este mapa muestra los Caminos De Santiago en España. // This map shows the Caminos De Santiago in Spain.


Estos muestran el mapa de España con cosas características de cada Comunidad Autónoma. // These show the map of Spain with characteristic features of each Autonomous Community.

Y este el mapa de mi Comunidad Autónoma, Murcia. Donde también dibujan cosas características (comida, lugares…)
Espero que os gusten. // And this is the map of my Autonomous Community, Murcia. Where they also draw characteristic things (food, places…)

I‘m not sure this counts as map but I really like this one -especially if I can send it out with flower stamps

or this one

This is more of a classical map card. It shows the area I live in.
