Yangtze waterfront
The Yangtze, broadened into a reservoir by the Three Gorges Dam, runs along the foot of the town and forms a smooth band of water beneath the terraced streets.

The map
About this Yong’an map poster
Yong’an is the seat of Fengjie County in north-eastern Chongqing, on the north bank of the Yangtze. The landscape is steep, and from above the town looks like a set of terraces: streets run along the contours of the slope, tall buildings stack up the hillside, and switchback roads link the levels. Beyond them, mountains rise sharply on both banks.
The town lies just upstream of Qutang Gorge, the first and shortest of the Three Gorges, and near Baidicheng, the White Emperor City, which is linked to the Three Kingdoms period and to the poems of Li Bai and Du Fu. When the Three Gorges Dam raised the level of the river, much of the old town was rebuilt higher up the slope.
A Yong’an map poster is mainly about relief and water. The broad, still reservoir of the Yangtze runs across the frame, and the town’s narrow bands of streets cling above it. Few maps show so clearly how a city adapts to a mountain. The compressed layout gives the poster a strong horizontal rhythm.

Contour streets
Roads follow the hillside in long, curving tiers connected by switchbacks. The street pattern shows the steep terrain even without contour lines.
Gateway to the gorges
Downstream, the river narrows into Qutang Gorge, and the mountains close in on both banks. It is one of the most famous stretches of landscape in China.

Why Yong’an
A map that means something
For people from Fengjie and for travellers who have sailed through the Three Gorges, Yong’an is a place of beginnings and departures. A map fixes the town’s striking position on the river in a clear, lasting form.
Personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates line in any wording. Then choose from Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Paper works well with a place tied to classical poetry.
