The overhanging cliff
A huge rock face curves over part of the old town. It is one of the most striking urban settings in Iran and the landmark Maku is best known for.

Maku Map Poster & Print
Maku lies in West Azerbaijan Province, close to Iran's borders with Turkey and Azerbaijan's Nakhchivan exclave. It is known above all for its setting: part of the old town sits directly beneath an enormous overhanging rock face, so the houses look as if they are tucked under a stone roof. On clear days, the snow-covered cone of Mount Ararat can be seen from the surrounding area.
The valley is so tight that the city stretches along its floor in a long, thin ribbon instead of spreading outward. A river runs through it, and the main road follows the same line toward the Bazargan border crossing. Steep slopes on both sides leave only a narrow strip for streets, which gives Maku an unusually long, slender outline on the map.
A Maku map poster captures this rare shape. Dense blocks are squeezed between the walls of the gorge, and newer districts open out where the valley widens. The terrain does the design work here, so the finished print reads almost like a cross-section of the landscape and stays clear even at small sizes.

Gorge-floor ribbon
Streets run lengthwise along the valley floor, with short cross lanes climbing the slopes. The built-up area forms a long, slender band on the map.
Road to the border
The main route through the city leads west to the Bazargan crossing into Turkey. It has long been part of the overland route between Iran and Europe.

Cur Maku
Tabula quae aliquid significat
People remember Maku for its setting, whether they grew up in the gorge or passed through on the road to Turkey. Its unusual shape makes a strong, recognisable print on any wall.
Personalise the title and subtitle with a name, a date or a short dedication, and point the coordinates to a family house. Choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Noir gives the narrow valley a particularly dramatic look.
