Map Postcard of Portugal!

I adore certain 'types' of postcard. One type of postcard I enjoy collecting is of maps! Any kind of map, country, state, region, transport, world, maritime...you name it, I like it if it is a map of some kind! Yesterday, I received a private swap card from JoaoNogueira who lives in Portugal of a map of his country.

3 facts about Portugal:
  • The capital city is Lisbon, on the country's west coast and Porto is the second largest city, in the north of the country.
  • Approximately 10.5 million people live in Portugal, with about three-quarters living in coastal areas.
  • As of 2013, Portugal has 15 sites inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage Site list, including the culture landscape of Sintra and University of Coimbra.
