Valley corridor
The town follows the valley floor in a long, slender strip, so the map has a strong direction. Nearly every street runs parallel to the river.

The map
Gengqing is the seat of Dêgê County in the Garzê Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of western Sichuan, at well over 3,000 metres. From above, the town is long and narrow. It follows a river through a deep valley, with mountain slopes rising sharply on both sides. Streets run lengthwise with the water, and the few cross streets are short, cut off quickly by the terrain.
The town is best known for the Dêgê Parkhang, a printing house founded in the eighteenth century where Tibetan scriptures are still printed by hand from carved wooden blocks. It remains one of the most important centres of Tibetan printing, and pilgrims walk circuits around it each day. Monasteries and older quarters sit on the valley floor and lower slopes.
A Gengqing map poster works almost like a cross-section of the valley: a thin band of streets, the line of the river, and roads that climb away toward mountain passes. To the west, the Jinsha River forms the boundary with the Tibet Autonomous Region. Every line in the composition follows the shape of the land.
The town follows the valley floor in a long, slender strip, so the map has a strong direction. Nearly every street runs parallel to the river.
The historic printing house and the lanes around it anchor the older part of town, a place of pilgrimage that has drawn visitors from across the Tibetan world for centuries.
Beyond the built-up area, roads leave the valley in long bends and switchbacks. These curving lines contrast with the tight, straight streets of the town below.

Why Gengqing
A map of Gengqing suits travellers who have crossed the Sichuan–Tibet routes, and anyone drawn to Tibetan culture and the Dêgê printing tradition. Its narrow, river-bound shape makes a distinctive composition that looks nothing like a typical city plan.
Personalise the title and subtitle, perhaps with the Tibetan name or the date of a journey, and keep or change the coordinates line. Blueprint and Noir both bring out the valley's linear form, while Paper and Sand give a softer, warmer finish.
