The Silk Roads Classroom Map traces the silk trade across Eurasia at 100 BC, by land and by sea. Students see the caravan corridors leaving the Han Empire of China and the sea lanes that carried the same goods west toward the Roman Empire in Turkey and the Middle East.

Map Finishing Options

Transform your wall map into a ready-to-hang centerpiece! Our professional framing and railing services often cost less than visiting a local framer. Choose your finishing option during checkout and receive your map ready to display immediately and hassle-free.

High-quality world maps, atlases, globes, and travel accessories available at The Map Shop, your premier source for geographic products and navigation tools.

Paper

Paper finishing is the most economical option. Most maps are printed on premium 36lb paper. Waterproof paper is also available for functional maps that may be used outdoors.

Laminated

Maps are printed, then run through our laminator that applies 1.7mil-thick satin-gloss lamination to the front and back. You can use map stickers and wet-erase markers.

A wide selection of maps, atlases, and travel accessories available online at The Map Shop for all your navigation and exploration needs.

Mounted

Maps are printed, then laminated with 1.7mil-thick satin lamination onto 1/4″-thick foam core. You can use map pins, stickers, or wet-erase markers with our mounted maps.

High-quality maps and atlases at The Map Shop, offering detailed topographic, road, and travel maps for explorers, hikers, travelers, and map enthusiasts.

Laminated with Rails

First, we laminate the map, then mount wood rails at the top and bottom. The front side of each rail features a black or walnut finish, while the sides and back are unfinished wood. Sawtooth hardware is attached to the back of the top rail so it's ready to hang. You can use stickers or wet-erase markers on your laminated map. We recommend a mounted or framed option if you'd like to use map pins to mark locations.

Detailed world map for educational and navigation purposes, featuring colorful country borders and geographic details, ideal for classrooms, offices, or wall decor.

Vintage world map with detailed cartography and colorful borders, perfect for collectors and map enthusiasts seeking historical and geographical artifacts.

Mounted with Rails

First, we laminate the map onto foam core, then mount wood rails at the top and bottom. The front side of each rail features a black or walnut finish, while the sides and back are unfinished wood. Sawtooth hardware is attached to the back of the top rail so it's ready to hang. You can use map pins, stickers, or wet-erase markers on your map. This option will lay clean and flat against the wall, unlike the laminated with rails option.

Detailed vintage world map by The Map Shop with walnut and black rail accents, ideal for educational or decorative purposes. Perfect for map enthusiasts and collectors seeking quality cartography.

High-quality maps and travel guides available at The Map Shop, perfect for navigation, outdoor adventures, and travel planning.

Framed

Maps are laminated onto foam core, then secured into the frame. The engineered molding is made from recycled wood in either a black or walnut finish that wraps around the entire map. Most moldings are 2″ wide by 3/4″ deep, but maps 24″ x 36″ and smaller use a 1.25″ wide molding. You can use map pins, stickers, or wet-erase markers on all our framed maps. Ready-to-hang sawtooth hardware or wire hanging loops are included.

Spring Roller

The map is laminated then installed on a spring roller and backboard.
