Posting my map here as well for other references. Started off with Ximending to the Pitstop, didn't include in the ZhongXiao FuXing station which you can find nearly cut off at the bottom of the map near the middle. That's all.

Post by: georgiapeach on June 20, 2011, 02:38:39 PM: Nope, I have no clue. I haven't been to Indonesia in years.

Thanks for the MAPS everyone!! :lol:

If possible, please EMBED your maps instead of attaching them? Attachments get deleted every now and then....

Post by: georgiapeach on June 20, 2011, 02:50:57 PM: Here is one way:

The best is to save the pic to your computer, go to [banned image hosting site] or a photobucket account (both free) and upload the picture then use their [img] code to copy here.

A map of Jakarta to Yogykarta:

Peach, do you know which terminal teams are going to?

According to this map there are like five in all corners of the city:

All trains from Jakarta will arrive at Tugu Station, Jogjakarta :tup:
And Tugu station is the area with the red circle on it

Anxiously waiting Neobie's great world map!! :yess:

Here is a map from Yogykarta (Tugu train station) to Bukit Indah resort

(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j472/RealityTVistheBest/yogytobukit.jpg)

i think the map is wrong. hotel bukit indah resort is located in wonosari street km 15. The place is south east of yogyakarta, maybe around 18 km from train station
Title: Re: TAR 19 Maps Thread
Post by: nasy on June 21, 2011, 10:57:23 PM: Yes, I'm positive. the place you showed is actually 'Villa Bukit Turgo Indah', in jl. Kaliurang. if you search bukit indah, Yogyakarta, you will get that place.
Fyi, most place in Indonesia is not mapped at all. and bukit indah resort is included. so it's alittle hard to find it in googlemap.

I'm trying to make it but failed to show the line. maybe you can do it?
Bukit indah resort is situated in Jl. Wonosari Km 15. so best if you get the direction from tugu train station, Yogyakarta to Jl Wonosari, Patuk, Yogyakarta. There's place called Piyungan and Patuk. I think from piyungan only 1 or 2 km. Maybe it's close to where the road turn around before Patuk. (I hope so because I'm a little bad in reading a map :( )

My questions about filming got me nowhere, but at least I got a couple of maps: (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v217/Slowhatch/Misc/HsiLai.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v217/Slowhatch/Misc/HsiLaioblique.jpg)

Post by: Chateau d If on October 18, 2011, 11:59:04 AM: Koh Sup doesn't look like 13 min due North on the map. :lol:

Maybe it is one of those magnetic north issues? :duno:
Title: Re: TAR 19 Maps Thread
Post by: Neobie on October 18, 2011, 12:29:43 PM: Haha, maybe due North until you see the silhouette of the two islands as on the medallion?

If anyone can figure out exactly where the Pit Start was for Leg 3 or where they started the bike ride I'd be greatly grateful!
Title: Re: TAR 19 Maps Thread
Post by: Slowhatch on October 18, 2011, 09:50:44 PM: The flooring and light fixtures, as well as the clothes, elfin ears and dagger of the Abdi Dalem (http://beingindonesian.tumblr.com/post/1115640618/abdi-dalem-keraton-ngayogyakarta-hadiningrat) (kraton guard/caretakers/etc.), all point to somewhere on the grounds. I'd assume the bike start is nearby (you can see a gate with "271").

Assuming for now this find (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,25526.msg623083.html#msg623083) by LeafsFan relates to us, originally posted 29 Jun 2011.

Title: Re: TAR 19 Maps Thread
Post by: georgiapeach on November 01, 2011, 11:01:11 PM: The Kumbali Lodge "owns" (??) the Village I think, and it is just walking distance from the Lodge.

To reach the Lodge:
From Lilongwe City Centre, head north out the city following Kamuzu Procession Road. Follow straight over the roundabouts passing Crossroads Hotel. At the Japanese Embassy Roundabout take the last exit right. Continue past the parliamentary building on your left and before reaching the presidential palace, turn left and follow signs to Kumbali Country Lodge.

MAP of Village: http://tracks4africa.co.za/listings/item/w240701/ (http://tracks4africa.co.za/listings/item/w240701/)

Based on the special thanks, we believe production used Crossroads. The Lilongwe source said that the "amazing race people" spent the night at the Village...I have no evidence the Lodge was used at all.

I'll post maps in the upcoming few days, but let me know if there are any mistakes, alright?
