The map
Yūki lies in western Ibaraki Prefecture, near the border with Tochigi, on the broad, flat plain of the Kanto region. From above, the city is a compact core of streets surrounded by rice fields and scattered settlements, with the Kinu River running nearby to the west.
The centre grew as a castle town of the Yūki clan, and traces of that older layout remain in the pattern of streets, temples and shrines in the historic area. Around it, newer neighbourhoods and roads spread outward, and the rail line crosses the town on its way through the plain.
Yūki is best known for Yūki-tsumugi, a hand-woven silk fabric whose production techniques have been recognised by UNESCO as intangible cultural heritage. A Yūki map poster shows the town's old core, its newer edges and the farmland that surrounds it.

Rice fields surround the city on all sides, giving the map an open, regular texture that frames the built-up area.

Why Yūki
For people from Yūki, or those drawn to its silk-weaving tradition, a map of the town is a calm and personal piece. The old centre and the fields around it form a composition that is balanced and easy to live with.
