A map of a destination and its immediate surroundings are displayed at a relatively low level. Symbolic context information is displayed simultaneously, in order to provide a higher-level context for the location. The symbolic context information can include such things as nearby highways, exits, bridges, sports venues or other landmarks and points of interest. The symbolic context information can be displayed, for example, on the perimeter of the map, or on the map in a distinct visual style such as a different color or font or fish-eye view. As the map is updated, (for example if the user zooms in or out), the context information is updated as well. The context information can be interactive, and can display the relationship between the context item and the location being mapped.
