TOPIC: The two maps below show an island, before and after the construction of some tourist facilities. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where revelents.
The maps show the development which took place at an island in an attempt to turn the area into a tourist attraction.
Before the alteration, the island was a much greener area with more-opened spaces . There was a beach in the west shore of the island , a few trees distributed on the east and west parts and no buildings. After a myriad of changes, although the number of trees remained, the island had converted into a modern area with many tourist facilities.
There were two accommodation groups erecting in form of huts with footpaths coming within each. In terms of beach, it had been built into a swimming spot connected to the western accommodation units also by a footpath. Futher constructions were a restaurant emerged in the north of the area and a reception built in the island's centre. A vehicle track ran from the restaurant to south , surrounded the reception on its way . It can be seen that sailing boats were also put into use after the construction of a pier on the south shore of the island.
Overall, a comparison between the two maps reveals a transformation from a large rural area to a luxury resort.
