The map
Ocotal is the capital of Nueva Segovia, the northernmost department of Nicaragua, close to the border with Honduras. It sits in a highland valley surrounded by pine-covered hills, and its name refers to the ocote pine that grows across the region.
The town centre follows the Spanish colonial pattern: a regular grid of streets around a central plaza with its church. From there, the blocks extend outward until the terrain and the river valleys interrupt them. On a monochrome map the grid appears tidy and dense, framed by irregular roads winding into the hills.
An Ocotal map poster also carries a place in history. In 1927 the town was the site of the Battle of Ocotal between Augusto César Sandino's forces and US Marines, often cited as one of the first organised dive-bombing attacks. Today it is a regional hub for coffee and trade.
The main square sits at the heart of the grid, and the surrounding blocks radiate from it in straight lines, a classic layout that reads crisply in black and white.
The town fills a valley floor ringed by hills, so its streets eventually give way to curving rural roads that follow slopes and ridges into the pine forest.
A main road links Ocotal toward the Honduran border, giving the map a strong outward line that connects this small grid to the wider region.

Why Ocotal
Ocotal is a place of strong local pride and many emigrant families. A map of its grid, plaza and hills makes a thoughtful gift for someone from Nueva Segovia or anyone who has spent time in northern Nicaragua.
