Post-1797 grid
After the earthquake the city was re-founded on flatter ground. The rebuilt centre follows a strict grid of square blocks that reads with unusual clarity on a print.

A regular Andean grid laid out on a high plain, with Chimborazo's snow cone standing just beyond the frame.

Te mape
Riobamba lies at about 2,750 metres in the central Ecuadorian Andes and is the capital of Chimborazo Province. The original town stood some distance away and was destroyed by the earthquake of 1797. The city was then rebuilt on the present plain, which is why its centre is such a tidy chessboard of square blocks and orderly plazas.
On the map the grid runs cleanly in every direction before loosening into newer districts and farmland at the edges. Parks appear as single missing squares in the pattern, and the longer avenues show as slightly heavier lines across the right-angled streets. In black and white the effect is almost architectural, like a plan drawn with a ruler.
Riobamba also has a place in national history: Ecuador's first constituent assembly met here in 1830. A Riobamba map poster shows that planned centre at a scale where each block is legible. It is framed by the open land that leads towards Chimborazo, the highest summit in Ecuador and the point on Earth's surface farthest from its centre.
After the earthquake the city was re-founded on flatter ground. The rebuilt centre follows a strict grid of square blocks that reads with unusual clarity on a print.
Open squares break up the grid at regular intervals. On the poster they appear as clean blank cells within the dense pattern of the surrounding streets.
The volcano rises north-west of the city. Its summit lies outside a typical frame, but the land climbing towards it shapes how the streets thin out on that side.

Kaia a Riobamba
Riobamba appeals to people who know it as a gateway to the high Andes, as a university city or as a place of family roots. The grid gives it a calm, measured look on a wall, closer to an architectural drawing than a tourist map.
You can personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates line, for example with a surname or the year you lived there. Pick Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Then download the HD files for $9 or order a printed poster on matte paper, with an optional wooden frame.
