Abstract

Maps have gained popularity with the advent of the latest technological advances.The Maps have been transformed from the traditional paper maps into digitized ones, which have become aninseparable part of our daily lives. This study focuses on the sightseeing illustration maps. Specifically, the study endeavors to analyze the experiences of the local and the foreign tourists.This exploratory study is based on a comparison of the two groups of visitors and to discuss their experiences. The results of the study would contribute to our understanding of the preferences of the tourists and the impact of the novel digitized sightseeing illustration maps. The results illustrate that the subjects were significantly influenced by the pretty visual design, the educational backgrounds, the age, and the knowledge of the localities which would be helpful in the sightseeing illustration map designing and recommend certain areas for potential research in the future.
