National Geographic's wall map of Australia is one of the most authoritative maps of the "Land Down Under." The Executive map uses an antique-style color palette and stunning shaded relief that provide a richness perfect for any decor. This map features thousands of place names, including primary and secondary towns, accurate boundaries, parks and protected areas, aboriginal lands, and transportation infrastructure such as airports and highways. Australia's famous coastal reefs including the extraordinary Great Barrier Reef are shown as well. Coverage also includes Tasmania and the Coral Sea Islands.

The map is encapsulated in heavy-duty 1.6 mil laminate which makes the paper much more durable and resistant to the swelling and shrinking caused by changes in humidity. Laminated maps can be framed without the need for glass, so the fames can be much lighter and less expensive.
