A navigation apparatus, which is mounted on a movable body such as a vehicle, displays a map around a present position in plural display modes which a user can designate. The map data is prepared in each display mode to be stored in a storage unit. For example, the present position of the movable body is detected by a unit such as a GPS. Then, based on the present position, a base link which is used as a basis of a display mode change is determined. Basically, the map is displayed in the display mode designated by the user. However, when the map data corresponding to the display mode designated by the user does not include the base link, the map is displayed in the display mode corresponding to the map data including the base link. The base link can be a link corresponding to the present position of the vehicle, or a scheduled travel link on a guide route.
