The best quality road mapping I can find on-line for Turkia is This Site - I don't want street maps of towns I want good mapping of where roads exist between towns and villages which seems impossible to find

For example - on this map I know that there is a road that continues past Turunç from Içmeler and connects with Çiftlik.....I know because I have driven it - and it is not just a track it is a proper tarmacced road!

Is there anywhere that I can get a road map of Turkia that shows all the roads including the dirt tracks, Toprak Yollarlar and Köy Yollarları ??? I am not just thinking about on-line sources - is there a paper version perhaps?

The best map I can find is the one below. You can see how İçmeler and Turunç are connected but there is no other detail. When you zoom in some roads change colors and become either green or yellow which suggests they might be different types of roads.

I can imagine that road and map issues are a bit frustrating when you live in the UK and visit Turkia. I'm so impressed with the online mapping and postcode features in the UK. It is just perfect.

This is the area where I live. Try zooming out to see how perfectly it covers the whole country or try entering a postcode (example: WC1B 3DG )to see how easy it is to find a place on map.

Hopefully in a short time around 60 years we will have the same online maps like this. Acording my calculations we are 60 years behind on time. Hopefully one day we will have trains to travel from one city to another, online maps to find a street, highway or address and internet connections to use without swearing on high prices and extremely low speeds and a postal service as reliable as Royal Mail.
