The map
Yae is a town in Kitahiroshima, in the mountains of northern Hiroshima Prefecture. It lies in a basin surrounded by forested hills, where the flat valley floor is given over to rice paddies and small settlements. From above, the town is a modest cluster of streets along the main roads, with water channels and fields filling the land around it.
The area is known for its farming traditions. Kitahiroshima is home to the Mibu no Hana Taue, a rice-planting ritual with music and dance that has been inscribed by UNESCO as intangible cultural heritage. The Chūgoku Expressway also passes through the town, linking this rural basin with the rest of western Japan.
A Yae map poster shows a Japanese mountain town in its setting. The streets and houses are concentrated along the valley, paddies form a fine grid on the flat land, and the wooded hills leave broad open areas at the edges. It is a calm, balanced image with plenty of space.
Rice fields cover the valley floor in small rectangles, giving large parts of the map a fine, regular texture.
The Chūgoku Expressway crosses the area in long curves, a strong modern line through the rural landscape.
Forested slopes enclose the basin on all sides, framing the town with wide, quiet areas on the poster.
