La Casa del Mapa
BOOKS, MAPS
(Carrer de Sant Domingo 11; 9.30am-2pm Mon, to 7pm Tue-Fri)
You could come to this
government-run shop for topographical maps and other hiking resources, but we like it
just as much for facsimiles of some examples from Mallorca's ancient cartographical
heritage - the 1375 map of the known world by Abraham Cresques is a real find.

secondhand books, including some really valuable treasures, rambles over three floors. If
