Tea estates
Large tea farms around the town appear as ordered blocks of fields and estate roads, giving the poster a finer, more regular texture than most highland farmland.

Tabula
Limuru lies in the highlands north-west of Nairobi in Kiambu County, at an altitude of over two thousand metres. The town grew along the railway and the main road towards Nakuru, and its centre remains small and linear. On a map it is surrounded less by suburbs than by farmland: a patchwork of tea estates, smallholdings and patches of forest on rolling ridges.
The land around Limuru is known for tea, and the regular rows and field blocks of the estates give the map a distinctive texture. Just to the west, the ground drops steeply down the escarpment of the Great Rift Valley, and the roads leaving town towards Naivasha begin a long descent to the valley floor.
The writer Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o was born near Limuru, and the area appears throughout his work. A Limuru map poster shows the small town and its highland setting in clear black lines, a portrait of a place defined by its climate, its farms and its position at the edge of the Rift.
Large tea farms around the town appear as ordered blocks of fields and estate roads, giving the poster a finer, more regular texture than most highland farmland.
West of Limuru the escarpment of the Great Rift Valley begins its steep drop. Roads bend sharply as they descend, a pattern that shows clearly on the map.
The railway from Nairobi passes through Limuru, and the town centre lies along it and the main road, a narrow linear core set within wide rural surroundings.

Cur Limuru
Limuru is home for many families, a weekend escape from Nairobi for others, and a place with a strong literary association. A map of the town and its tea country suits a home in Nairobi as much as a flat abroad where someone misses the highland air.
Personalise the title and subtitle, add a family name or a date, and edit the coordinates line to mark your farm or house. Five styles are available, Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand, as a $9 digital download or a print.
