The map

About this Ujjain map poster

Ujjain is one of the oldest cities in India, set on the Malwa plateau in Madhya Pradesh. The Shipra River curves around the western side of the old city, and its bank is lined with ghats, steps leading down to the water. From above, the older districts near the river are a dense mesh of narrow lanes, while newer parts of the city spread out to the east.

The Mahakaleshwar temple, one of the twelve Jyotirlingas of Shiva, stands near the centre and draws pilgrims from across the country. Ujjain is also one of the four cities where the Kumbh Mela is held, here known as the Simhastha, which takes place about every twelve years and fills the riverbanks with temporary camps.

A Ujjain map poster also reflects the city's place in the history of Indian astronomy. For centuries, the prime meridian of Hindu astronomy was placed at Ujjain, and an eighteenth-century observatory still stands there. The Tropic of Cancer passes nearby. In black and white, the curve of the river and the tangle of old streets are the main features.

01

Shipra ghats

The river bends around the old city, and its banks are lined with bathing ghats. Ram Ghat is the best known, and the curve of the water frames the dense centre.

02

Temple district

Around Mahakaleshwar, streets are narrow and closely packed, with newer wide approaches built for large crowds of pilgrims during festivals.

03

Old observatory

The Vedh Shala, an eighteenth-century observatory, sits south of the centre near the river, a reminder of the city's long role in Indian astronomy.

Why Ujjain

A map that means something

For many, Ujjain is tied to pilgrimage, family rituals or a Simhastha visit. A map of the river and old city is a calm, meaningful way to remember that journey or a home that has been in the family for generations.

Personalise the title and subtitle, perhaps with a festival year, and keep or adjust the coordinates. Choose one of five styles; Paper and Sand give the old city a warm tone, and Classic black & white keeps every lane sharp.

Send the PDF to any local print shop or online printing service and ask for the matching paper size. Matte paper and a thin black or oak frame suit this style best.
