Tabula
Baishikante lies in the Kashgar region of southwestern Xinjiang, on the edge of the Tarim Basin. Here the Taklamakan Desert meets a band of irrigated farmland fed by rivers coming down from the Pamir and Kunlun mountains. From above, the town sits within a patchwork of fields divided by canals and rows of poplars, the classic pattern of a Central Asian oasis.
Life in this part of Xinjiang is closely tied to water. Irrigation channels branch across the landscape, and villages and towns follow them in long, green strips. The population is largely Uyghur, and the region has for centuries been part of the network of oasis settlements that lined the southern Silk Road routes around the Tarim Basin.
A Baishikante map poster shows how people shaped this dry landscape. Straight roads and canals divide the land into regular fields, while the town's streets form a denser cluster within them. In black and white, the lines of irrigation and tree-lined roads give the map a quiet, ordered rhythm, with the desert implied beyond its edges.
Long, straight canals and ditches divide the surrounding land, carrying mountain meltwater to the fields that keep the oasis green.
Regular rectangles of farmland surround the town on all sides, giving the map a geometric pattern that contrasts with the denser centre.
Rural roads run in straight lines between fields and villages, typical of the oasis landscapes of the western Tarim Basin.

Cur Baishikante
For people with roots in southern Xinjiang, this map records a home shaped by water and the desert. It is a meaningful gift for someone who has moved away from the oasis towns around Kashgar.
Add your own title and a subtitle with a date or family name, and edit the coordinates line. Choose from five styles, Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Sand suits the desert setting especially well.
