Description


This is a 1972 Nanhua Publishing House (南華出版社) city plan or map of Taichung City, Taiwan. Printed in both English and Chinese, the map depicts the city from the Pei Tun District to the South District. Streets throughout are labeled, although more streets bear Chinese labels than English. The cartographer leverages color coding to differentiate districts and the city's blue rivers stand out in contrast. Blue dashed lines trace railroad lines. A legend in the upper left explains the various notations used.
