The map
Pailou is an urban subdistrict of Wanzhou in northeastern Chongqing, on the Yangtze River. From above, the terrain shapes everything. The broad river, widened by the Three Gorges reservoir, fills the low ground, and streets climb the steep slopes above it in curves and switchbacks. Buildings stand close together wherever the land flattens enough to build.
Wanzhou has long been one of the main river ports on the upper Yangtze. The filling of the Three Gorges reservoir in the early 2000s raised the water level and led to extensive reconstruction of the riverside districts. The city is known for dishes such as Wanzhou grilled fish.
A Pailou map poster shows a hillside city on a very large river. The wide water gives the map a strong open shape, and the dense, curving streets above it show how this part of Chongqing has adapted to steep ground.
The broad water of the Yangtze, raised by the Three Gorges dam, forms a large open shape along the edge of the map.
Roads climb the slopes in curves and loops, following the terrain instead of forming a regular grid.
Buildings and streets pack tightly onto the flatter ground, forming thick clusters between steep, less developed slopes.
