The maps of optical depth to gravitational microlensing are presented for a classic model of the Galaxy. Also shown are the microlensing maps for a model with the Galactic Bulge shaped as a bar elongated along the line of sight. In the latter model the optical depth to microlensing by the disk and the bar stars is tau approx 2 times 10^{-6} in the Baade's Window. It is consistent with the lower limit obtained with the OGLE data.
