The map
About this Rātu map poster
Rātu lies on the Chota Nagpur plateau in Jharkhand, a short distance northwest of Ranchi. It sits on rolling upland with farmland, ponds and patches of woodland. On a map the town gathers along the main road out of the state capital, with lanes branching off into residential areas and nearby villages.
The town is known for Ratu Palace, the early twentieth-century residence of the Nagvanshi rulers of Chotanagpur. The large building still stands and draws crowds during the Durga Puja festival. Closer links with Ranchi have made Rātu partly a suburb and partly a market town for the surrounding countryside.
A Rātu map poster shows the pattern of a plateau town: a busy central road, a denser area around the market and palace, and village lanes spreading between ponds and fields. The ponds show as small pale shapes scattered through the network, adding detail to the quieter outer areas.

Why Rātu
A map that means something
People from Rātu and the surrounding villages often move to Ranchi and beyond for work and study. A map of the town keeps the palace, the market road and home in view, and it suits a quiet corner of a new flat.
