PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a crossroad guide method of a navigation system capable of providing a driver with information about the number of crossroads remaining until a next turning point on a driving route. SOLUTION: A method for providing crossroad information using the navigation system mounted to a vehicle includes searching a map database to extract a driving route to a destination when the destination is selected in navigation mode, extracting information on crossroads present in the driving route, and providing a drive guide image, to a display panel, the driving guide image including a map of an area around a current position of the vehicle, a traveling direction in the driving route, and a number of remaining crossroads, wherein the number of remaining crossroads decreases each time the vehicle passes through the remaining crossroads. The method further includes providing a turn symbol which indicates a target turning direction of the vehicle and representing the turn symbol at or around a crossroad of a turning point in the drive guide image, when the vehicle passes through a last crossroad.
