Tao River course

The map
Liulin is the seat of Jonê County in the Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Gansu, set in the valley of the Tao River at the north-eastern edge of the Tibetan plateau. Mountains rise on either side, and the town has grown lengthways along the river, with streets running parallel to the water and only a little room to spread outward.
That setting gives the map a strong direction. The river draws a long curve across the sheet, the town follows it in a narrow band, and bridges link the two banks at intervals. Beyond the last buildings, roads climb into valleys that lead to villages and monasteries in the surrounding highlands.
A Liulin map poster turns this linear valley town into a clear, graphic image. The river and the parallel streets give it a natural rhythm, and the steep ground on either side keeps the whole composition focused.
The Tao River runs through the valley and shapes the town completely, with the main streets following its banks for much of their length.
Squeezed between mountain slopes, Liulin stretches out in a long, narrow band, giving the poster an unusual elongated form rather than a round centre.
Bridges cross the river at several points, connecting the two sides of town and adding short, firm lines across the flowing curve of the water.
