Does anyone know of a good website for maps of places outside the US? I'm specifically looking for a street map of Volgograd, formerly Stalingrad (for a short SF story I'm working on). This is a fairly large city, but I'm having trouble finding a detailed map. Google produces some sites that show the general area, but nothing with street-level-detail.

Does this help? It doesn't have road names, but you can see the general layout of the city.

Yeah, thanks Jules, I can see that there is a bridge crossing the river in the northern part of the city (which is what I needed to know). I'm particularly interested in the distance from that bridge to Mamal Hill (which is not marked on the map, but is an important monument).

Names of streets don't concern me, but the name of the bridge(s) would be useful.

Thanks for the great help.
