The map

About this Kiryū map poster

Kiryū sits at the northern edge of the Kantō plain in Gunma Prefecture, where the mountains meet the flat land. From above, the city is pressed into the space where two rivers leave the hills, the Watarase and the Kiryu. The centre fills the flat ground between them, while forested ridges close in from the north.

For centuries Kiryū was one of Japan's main silk-weaving centres, and an old saying paired it with Kyoto's Nishijin district. Parts of the central district still keep old merchant houses and sawtooth-roofed weaving mills along narrow streets. On the map this area appears as a fine, tightly woven grid next to the broader modern roads.

A Kiryū map poster captures the moment where the plain gives way to the mountains. The northern half is mostly bare slopes and valley roads, the southern half is dense streets and rail lines, and the two rivers run through the frame like lines of thread.

01

Two rivers

The Watarase and Kiryu rivers frame the city centre and run out onto the plain, forming the two strongest curves on the poster.

02

Weaving district

The historic textile quarter shows as a tight, regular block pattern, where old mills and merchant houses still line narrow streets.

03

Mountain edge

Forested ridges rise sharply to the north, and roads follow narrow valleys into them, leaving large quiet areas on the upper part of the map.
