The map

About this Xiejiawan map poster

Xiejiawan is a town in the southeast of Gansu province, in the loess country that stretches across much of northwestern China. The land here is made of fine windblown soil, carved by streams into steep gullies and reshaped over centuries by hand-built terraces. Towns in this terrain tend to gather along valley floors, where water, roads and level ground are easiest to find.

The map of a place like this is shaped largely by relief. Streets run lengthwise along the valley, buildings pack into the level strip, and roads climb away in switchbacks toward villages on the uplands. Around the town, rural lanes trace the curves of terraced fields, a pattern that is distinctive to this part of China.

A Xiejiawan map poster is less about a dense centre than about a settlement fitted into a landscape. The built-up area forms a narrow, elongated shape, and the lines around it wind and double back in a way that no planned grid would. For anyone with roots in the area, it is a recognisable portrait of home.

01

Valley-floor town

Buildings and main streets concentrate on the flat ground of the valley, giving the settlement a long, linear footprint that stretches across the map.

02

Loess terraces

The surrounding slopes are shaped by generations of farming terraces, and the rural lanes that follow them add fine, curving lines across the edges of the print.

03

Switchback roads

Roads leaving the town zigzag up the hillsides toward upland villages, producing some of the most expressive linework in the composition.

Why Xiejiawan

A map that means something

Xiejiawan rarely appears on maps outside China, which is exactly why a poster of it feels personal. It records the streets someone walked to school or the road a family took to market, drawn with the same care as any capital city.

Add a title and subtitle in your own words, set the coordinates line, and choose from Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. The $9 download covers six sizes up to 24×36″, each without a watermark.
