Description

Sometimes is very hard to find the correct place in map because there are only houses, ways, water and forests.
On high zoom there should be also displayed - hills, churches, chapels, wayside crosses and more.

This style is too much google-like.
I would like to see style more like mapy.cz-like

please, compare

I support this request. Places of worship often serve as significant landmarks in the landscape. The tag "amenity=place_of_worship" should be displayed in a specific manner, as OSM does.

And why is the bus stop so visible in previous image? That doesn't make sense. The church with its bell tower is visible from hundreds of meters around. Not the bus stop.

TheDJ edited projects, added Maps (Map-Styles); removed Maps.
