The border line
The border with Egypt runs along the city's southern edge. It is a hard, straight line that cuts through what was once a single town.

Rafaḩ Map Poster & Print
Rafaḩ sits at the southern end of the Gaza Strip, where the territory meets Egypt's Sinai. On a map, its streets fill the space between the border to the south and Khan Yunis to the north. Neighbourhoods and former refugee camps form dense clusters of narrow lanes. To the west, the city reaches towards the Mediterranean coast, and farmland once lined its eastern edge.
The town was divided in 1982, when a border was drawn through it after Israel's withdrawal from Sinai, leaving an Egyptian Rafah on the other side. The Rafah crossing became the main gateway between Gaza and Egypt. Since 2023 the city has suffered extensive destruction in the war, and much of what the map records has been damaged or lost.
A Rafaḩ map poster is less a travel souvenir than an act of remembrance. It preserves the layout of streets, camps and neighbourhoods as they appear in mapping data. For families and anyone with ties to the city, it is a way to keep that shape on the wall, whatever has happened on the ground.

Dense camp quarters
Former refugee camps are the tightest parts of the map, with small blocks and narrow alleys packed far more closely than in the surrounding neighbourhoods.
Towards the coast
West of the centre, the built-up area thins out towards sand and the Mediterranean shore. It is the only natural edge on a map otherwise shaped by borders.

Cur Rafaḩ
Tabula quae aliquid significat
People hang a map of Rafah to keep hold of home, to honour relatives, or to remember a place they know through family stories. You can write your own title, add a subtitle with a family name, a street or a date, and keep the coordinates line.
Classic black and white and Noir give a sober, restrained result, while Paper, Sand and Blueprint soften the tone. The $9 digital files include six sizes as 300 DPI PNGs and print-ready PDFs, and a free watermarked preview is available first.
