The map
About this Sakai map poster
Sakai, in Fukui Prefecture, was formed in 2006 by merging several towns, and its map reflects that. Separate centres are spread across a wide plain of rice fields, joined by roads and rail. To the west the land meets the Sea of Japan, and the Kuzuryū River reaches the coast at the old port of Mikuni.
The shoreline is the city's most dramatic edge. North of Mikuni, the Tōjinbō cliffs rise from the sea in columns of basalt, one of the best-known coastal sights on this side of Japan. A Sakai map poster follows the coast from the river mouth to the cliffs, with the fine grid of fields filling the land behind.
Inland, Maruoka Castle stands on a low hill in the old castle town. Its keep is often counted among the oldest surviving in Japan. The castle town's streets gather around it, and the flat farmland of the Fukui plain spreads out beyond, crossed by irrigation channels and field roads that give the map an even, fine texture.

Why Sakai
A map that means something
Sakai combines a rugged coast, an old port and a castle town in one frame, so its map suits anyone with ties to Fukui or memories of the Hokuriku coast. It also works well in a calm, minimal room.
Edit the title, add a subtitle such as a family name or date, and adjust the coordinates. Paper and Sand bring out the field texture, and Noir sharpens the coastline.
