Palace quarter

The map
Ede is one of the older towns of Yorubaland, seat of the Timi of Ede, and its layout follows a familiar Yoruba pattern: a dense core of houses and compounds around the palace and markets, with roads radiating outwards to neighbouring towns. The street network is organic rather than planned, and on a map it forms a web that thins gradually into farmland and scrub.
The Osun River, sacred in Yoruba tradition, flows past the town, its course marked by a corridor of trees. The railway from Lagos to the north also passes through Ede, cutting a long, gentle line across the street pattern. Between river and railway, older neighbourhoods and newer residential areas fill the ground, and roads lead out to Osogbo, the state capital, a short drive away.
Ede is also a university town, home to the Federal Polytechnic Ede and to private universities, whose campuses add larger open plots to the edges of the map. An Ede map poster brings the old core, the river corridor and the rail line together in a simple black and white design that stays true to how the town grew.
The historic core around the palace of the Timi is the densest part of the map, a close weave of lanes and compounds from which the main roads lead out.
The river runs past the town through a band of vegetation, adding a soft, winding line that contrasts with the tight street pattern of the centre.
The line connecting Lagos with the north of Nigeria passes through Ede, drawing a long, continuous curve across the town that is easy to pick out in any style.
