The map
Derince lies on the northern shore of the Gulf of İzmit, just west of İzmit, in Kocaeli province. From above, the town is a narrow strip between the water and the hills. Port piers and industrial sites line the shore. Behind them, the main road and railway run parallel to the coast, and residential streets climb up the slopes in steep, stepped rows.
The Port of Derince is one of the most important on the gulf and has long served the industrial area of Kocaeli, one of Turkey's biggest manufacturing regions. The town grew around this port and the railway to İzmit and Istanbul. The gulf itself is long and narrow, so the opposite shore is always visible across the water.
A Derince map poster shows a clear layered structure: port piers in the water, transport lines along the shore and neighbourhoods on the hills. The straight edges of the docks contrast with the winding hill streets. For people who work at the port or grew up in Kocaeli, the map is accurate and familiar.
Large piers and quays project into the gulf. Their straight, geometric shapes are the strongest features on the waterfront.
A main road and the railway run side by side along the shore, connecting Derince with İzmit and Istanbul. They form a clear band across the map.
Residential streets climb the slopes behind the coast. They form tight, winding rows that give the upper part of the map its texture.
