The map
Songnim lies on the Taedong River in North Hwanghae Province, downstream from Pyongyang, where the river widens on its way to the Yellow Sea. From above, the town is organised around heavy industry: large rectangular works sites, rail sidings and a port on the riverfront. Residential blocks are arranged in orderly rows behind them.
The town grew around an ironworks founded during the Japanese colonial period, when the place was known as Kyŏmip'o. The Hwanghae Iron and Steel Complex is still its best-known feature. The river gives the town access to shipping, which is why port facilities and industrial land take up so much of the waterfront.
A Songnim-ni map poster is an unusual subject that appeals to collectors of industrial landscapes and to anyone curious about places rarely seen. Mapped in monochrome, the broad river, the geometric blocks of the steelworks and the regular housing grid form a stark, balanced composition that shows how one industry can shape a whole town.
The wide river runs along the town's edge and is the largest single shape on the map. The far bank opens into flat farmland.
The industrial complex covers a large tract of land. Its long buildings and internal roads form a geometric block that is clearly distinct from the housing.
Residential areas follow a regular layout of parallel blocks and straight streets, typical of the country's planned industrial towns.

Why Songnim-ni
A map of Songnim appeals to people drawn to industrial geography, river ports and places that lie outside the usual travel routes. It documents how a town is shaped by a single industry, drawn with the same care as any capital.
