The map
About this Umm Qaşr map poster
Umm Qaşr lies at the far southern tip of Iraq, close to the Kuwaiti border, on a tidal waterway that leads out to the Persian Gulf. From above, the landscape is almost entirely flat: tidal flats, desert and water. The town sits beside the port, whose long straight berths and storage yards are the most striking forms on the map.
It is Iraq's main deepwater port and the country's principal gateway for imported goods and grain. The rest of Iraq's short coastline is shallow, which gives Umm Qaşr great strategic importance. It has been at the centre of events in several regional conflicts, including the opening days of the 2003 war.
An Umm Qaşr map poster is unlike most city maps. The waterway cuts across the frame, the quays line it in precise geometric shapes, and the town's modest grid sits nearby, surrounded by open space. The result is spare and industrial, a portrait of a place defined by its access to the sea.

Tidal waterway
The channel linking the port with the Persian Gulf crosses the frame as a broad band of water, with low mudflats and shoreline along its edges.
Border setting
The town lies right beside the Kuwaiti border, and the flat, open desert around it leaves generous empty space that emphasises the port's isolation.
