City poster
Kyoto map poster
A Tang-dynasty grid beneath the eastern hills.
Kyoto is laid out on a 1,200-year-old grid borrowed from imperial China, framed by mountains on three sides and stitched by the Kamo River. In ink-wash tones the map feels like calligraphy.
Shown here in the Japanese Ink theme. Japanese ink washes the ancient grid in sumi-e tones. This preview is a live map: in the studio you can drag it to frame the exact area you want, switch between 14 hand-tuned themes, set your own caption, and order it printed on heavyweight, acid-free paper.
What to frame
- Gion teahouse lanes east of the Kamo
- Central Kyoto the Heian-era grid at full strength
- Arashiyama where the streets meet bamboo hills
