You can see rivers, bodies of water, trees and parks, the stations were all crammed 2 together at the center of the map, and out in the periphery 3, there were some that couldn't even fit on the map. So the map was geographically 4 accurate, but maybe not so useful.
你可以看到很多河川、水域、树木、公园,还有车站全都挤在整张地图的中央位置。而在外围,还有标示着其他根本挤不进地图里的东西。也就是说,虽然就地理上而言,这张地图算是正确的,但却可能不太实用。
