The map
Niš lies in the valley of the Nišava River in southern Serbia, at a historic crossroads of routes between Central Europe, the Aegean and Istanbul. The river crosses the city from east to west, and its gentle curve is the backbone of the map. On the northern bank stands the Niš Fortress, its angular Ottoman walls clearly visible from above.
The central town lies south of the river, organised around King Milan Square, with streets radiating outward and rising towards hills to the south. Bridges connect the two banks at regular intervals, and parks line parts of the waterfront.
Niš was the Roman city of Naissus, birthplace of Emperor Constantine the Great, and the remains of the imperial villa at Mediana lie to the east. The Skull Tower, a nineteenth-century monument, is another well-known site. A Niš map poster shows the layered city in a single calm view.
The Ottoman fortress on the northern bank has a distinctive star-shaped outline, one of the strongest geometric shapes on the map and a clear focal point.
The river divides the city into northern and southern parts, crossed by several bridges and lined by parks along a smooth, gentle curve.
The main square in the centre opens up just south of the river, with streets fanning out from it into the rest of the city.

Why Niš
Niš is a university city and a crossroads, and many people pass through it or come from it. A map of the river and fortress keeps a clear, recognisable image of the place, whether for a student, a returning emigrant or a family gift.
Personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates line, perhaps with the Cyrillic name, and choose Classic black and white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. The HD files cost $9; printed posters come on matte paper with an optional frame.
