The map
Nairobi began in 1899 as a depot on the Uganda Railway, and its map still reflects that origin. The compact central business district sits in a tight wedge of streets near the railway station, bounded by the Nairobi River to the north and Uhuru Highway to the west. From there, major roads fan outward to the suburbs and neighbouring towns.
To the west and north, leafy districts such as Westlands, Kileleshwa and Karen spread over higher ground with winding roads and large plots, while Karura Forest forms a large wooded space in the north. To the east, the city becomes flatter and denser. To the south lies Nairobi National Park, open grassland directly beside the city.
The name comes from a Maasai phrase meaning a place of cool water. Nairobi is one of very few capitals with a national park inside its boundaries, where wildlife can be seen against the skyline. A Nairobi map poster shows the dense centre, the green western suburbs and the open land to the south in a single clear composition.
The compact grid of the city centre, laid out near the railway station, forms a tight wedge that reads as the densest part of the map.
Open grassland along the southern edge of the city appears as a wide, nearly empty space, a striking contrast to the streets pressed up against it.
In the north, a large wooded area breaks the street pattern, one of the biggest green spaces within the city's boundaries.

Why Nairobi
Nairobi is a starting point for many journeys and a home for people from across East Africa and beyond. A map that shows the city alongside its park and forests captures something particular about living there, close to both streets and open land.
