'The Guide' Shows Tourists the Way

If you are a tourist exploring a rainy city, The Guide umbrella might be a cool alternative to GPS devices to show your around and keep you dry (or away from the scorching sun) at the same time.

The creative umbrella design serves as a guide of sorts with a map of the city with highlighted cafes, restaurants and hot spots printed on the outside of the umbrella.

This particular design by Cansu Cender features a map of Istanbul, Turkey, but it can be easily adopted to any area and sold at tourism shops and bookstores in these places.

Maybe it would be more useful if the map was printed on the inside? :)

Elsa, I think your neck would hurt from looking up if it were printed on the insides.

Probably its best use is when you have someone else with you, so they can look at the directions while you are holding the umbrella. I think, lol.

Hehe and make them stand in the rain instead of you, right?
