The map
Trapani has one of the most distinctive coastlines in Italy. The old town fills a narrow, curved spit of land that points west into the Mediterranean. The ancient Greeks called the settlement Drepanon, meaning sickle, after exactly this shape. On the map, the historic streets fill the spit from shore to shore.
South of the city, the flat coast is divided into the rectangular basins of the Trapani salt pans, still worked and edged by old windmills. Behind the city rises Monte San Giuliano with the medieval town of Erice on top. Ferries leave from the harbour for the Egadi Islands just offshore.
A Trapani map poster brings together three very different textures: the dense old town on its narrow tongue of land, the grid of salt basins to the south and the steep contours of the mountain behind. It suits anyone who knows western Sicily.
The old town fills a long, curved spit that ends in the sea at the Torre di Ligny. Water surrounds it on three sides of the frame.
South along the coast, rectangular evaporation basins form a precise geometric patchwork that looks almost man-made on paper, which it is.
On the sheltered southern side of the peninsula, quays and breakwaters shape the port that serves ferries to Favignana, Levanzo and Marettimo.

Why Trapani
Trapani is where many travellers start their trips to the Egadi Islands, and where Sicilian families have lived for generations between salt, sea and fishing. A map of its sickle-shaped coast is a portrait that needs no caption.
Blueprint and Sand both work well with the sea and the salt flats. Classic black & white, Noir and Paper are also available. Add a title, a wedding date or your own coordinates. Digital files cost $9 and printed posters ship from partners in over 30 countries.
