Every April 5th, we celebrate National Read A Road Map Day. Roadmaps serve as visual guides, depicting roads, country boundaries, and offering valuable information about landmarks, tourist attractions, parks, recreational facilities, hotels, restaurants, airports, train stations, and petrol stations. Despite the rise of GPS navigation and electronic maps in the 21st century, roadmaps remain reliable, especially when faced with challenges like a drained phone battery or lack of coverage. As printed maps become less prevalent, it's important on this day to take some time to learn how to read a roadmap. If possible, consider planning a short road trip using these traditional maps, reminiscent of the times before electronic navigation took over.
