This literary map takes you to Green Gables and its beautiful surroundings. Here you will find places such as the brook winding down from the woods, Lovers' Lane, the Lake of Shining Waters, and Violet Vale. Although Avonlea is a fictional place, it is loosely based on the real village of Cavendish, where L. M. Montgomery grew up. The map also shows nearby villages and the layout of Green Gables.
