The map

About this Koga map poster

Koga lies at the western edge of Ibaraki Prefecture, close to where Ibaraki, Tochigi, Gunma and Saitama meet. Water defines the map. The Watarase River runs along the town's western side, and the Tone River flows nearby to the south. The flat land between them holds railway lines, residential streets and neat blocks of farmland.

Just northwest of the town is the Watarase Retention Basin, one of the largest flood-control reservoirs in Japan. It was created from wetlands and is now a Ramsar-listed wetland. On a poster the heart-shaped Yanaka Lake and the surrounding reed beds form a large, calm shape beside the street pattern of the town.

Koga has a long past. In the Muromachi period it was the seat of the Koga kubō, the branch of the Ashikaga family that governed the Kanto region for more than a century. A Koga map poster places that history in its landscape of rivers, embankments and quiet residential lanes.

01

Watarase Retention Basin

The broad wetland and reservoir northwest of town is a striking open shape on the map, with Yanaka Lake at its centre and reed beds all around.

02

Watarase River embankments

Long river levees trace the western side of the town, clean parallel lines that show how carefully the Kanto Plain's waters are managed.

03

Station-centred streets

The area around the railway station holds the densest grid of streets, spreading into residential blocks and then farmland at the edges.

Is there a free version of the Koga map poster?

You can download a free 900 px preview with a watermark. The paid HD files have no watermark and are sharp enough for large prints.

How do I print my Koga map?

Send the PDF to any local print shop or online printing service and ask for the matching paper size. Matte paper and a thin black or oak frame suit this style best.
