Map #1

The two maps below show an island, before and after the construction of some tourist facilities.

The two maps illustrate how the island has changed after some new tourist facilities were added.

Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that there have been many significant changes to the previously empty island, with the appearance of many facilities that cater for tourists. The most striking change is that even though there is the emergence of various buildings, the trees still remain intact without being cut down.

It is noticeable that a reception has been introduced in the center of the island. A pier has been constructed to the south of reception to welcome tourists traveling to this destination, while a restaurant has appeared on the opposite side. Furthermore, all the buildings that lie in the central position of the island have been connected to one another by a vehicle track.

Additional houses have been added to either side of the island, with the figure for houses on the left-hand side being lower than on the right-hand side, accounting for six and nine houses respectively. All these cottages have been linked together by a footpath, which also extends to the beach. Moreover, a relatively wide region of the beach has been made available for swimming in the western edge of the island.
