The map
About this Botou map poster
Botou is a county-level city in Hebei, on the open, flat North China Plain south of Tianjin. The land is almost level, so the map is shaped by human lines. There are broad arterial roads, rail corridors and regular blocks. Through them runs the Grand Canal, the historic waterway that once linked the north with the Yangtze.
The canal gives Botou its most recognisable shape from above: a narrow ribbon that bends gently through the city, in contrast with the straight roads around it. Botou is also known in China for metal casting and mould-making, and large works sites show as big blocks toward the edges of the town.
A Botou map poster works with that contrast. The grid and highways show a modern industrial city, and the canal line recalls a much older route across the plain. In black and white, the single waterway becomes the thread that holds the composition together.

Plain-country grid
With almost no relief to follow, streets are laid out in wide, regular blocks. This gives the map an even, measured texture.
Industrial districts
Large factory and foundry sites appear as broad simple shapes at the city's edges. They reflect Botou's reputation for casting and mould work.
