Map of The Lisbon Metropolitan Area


The Lisbon Metropolitan Area, Portugal


The new Lisbon and Tagus Valley region of Portugal didn't last five minutes, and is now the Área Metropolitana de Lisboa, or AML to its friends. It evidently includes the Lisboa district (aka Grande Lisboa), Lisbon plus surrounding towns - Cascais (including Estoril), Sintra, Mafra, and so on, and the Setúbal district, the city of Setúbal and the Setúbal Peninsula.

This map of Portugal comes courtesy of those nice young people over at Google, bless their little cotton socks. It will centre where you double click, you can pan over it using the arrows (or dragging the rectangle in the overview map in the corner), and you can zoom in and out using the '+' and '-' buttons. Neat, ain't it? I have pre-selected the "Hybrid" view, just because I happen to like the look of it — if you are looking for a road map or a street map, just click "Map" (or "Mapa" or whatever it says in your language). Or select the "Satellite" view to remove the place names and other map elements.
