The map
About this Sakura map poster
Sakura lies in northern Chiba Prefecture, between Tokyo and Narita. The city grew up around Sakura Castle, and its old centre still follows the pattern of a castle town, with streets running along the edges of plateaus and dipping into small valleys between them.
The castle itself is gone, but its site is now a large park and home to the National Museum of Japanese History. Nearby, a short lane of preserved samurai residences gives a sense of the Edo-period town. To the north, the land drops toward the shallow Inba-numa lake and its surrounding rice fields.
A Sakura map poster shows a place where history and suburban growth meet. Near the lake, a Dutch-style windmill stands in a park famous for its spring tulip festival, a surprising landmark that has become one of the city's best-known sights.

Inba-numa lake
The long, shallow lake to the north gives the map a broad, quiet shape, bordered by flat farmland that contrasts with the hilly town.
Plateau streets
Old roads follow the ridges and valleys of the terrain, bending and branching in ways that reveal the castle town's original defensive layout.

Why Sakura
A map that means something
Sakura is a place of quiet history and seasonal rituals, from tulips by the windmill to cherry blossom in the castle park. A map of it suits anyone who has lived there or visits often.
Personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates line, perhaps with a date from a spring visit. Choose from five styles: Classic black and white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand.
