The map

About this Idkū map poster

Idkū is a town in Beheira Governorate, on the northwestern edge of the Nile Delta east of Alexandria. Its map is shaped by water on two sides: the Mediterranean coast to the north, and Lake Idku, a shallow coastal lagoon, lying just inland. The town itself is built on the narrow band of land between them, with its main streets running roughly parallel to the shore.

Fishing has long been central to life here, both at sea and on the lake, and the lagoon's reed beds and channels form a delicate pattern on the map. Idkū is also the site of a large liquefied natural gas plant on the coast, whose broad industrial shapes stand out clearly against the fine, dense streets of the older town.

An Idkū map poster captures a place defined by the meeting of sea, lagoon and Delta farmland. The long coastline, the irregular edge of the lake and the compact town between them give the composition a strong horizontal structure. For families from the town now living in Alexandria, Cairo or abroad, it is a clear and lasting reminder of home.

01

Mediterranean shore

The coastline runs along the northern edge of the map, a long, smooth line of beach that contrasts with the irregular margins of the lake behind the town.

02

Lake Idku

The lagoon lies close inland, its open water, reed beds and fishing channels forming soft, irregular shapes that fill much of the frame.

03

Town between waters

The older town is built tightly on the land between sea and lake, a fine pattern of narrow streets and close-set houses squeezed into a limited space.

Why Idkū

A map that means something

Idkū is a close-knit town where fishing families have lived beside the lake and the sea for generations. A map of its streets and shorelines makes a personal gift for anyone with roots here, whether they still live in Beheira or have moved far away.

You can set the title, subtitle and coordinates line yourself, in the wording that means most to you. Choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand, and order a $9 set of 300 DPI digital files or a printed poster on matte paper.
