Village Map - Muraezu

Japanese: 村絵図 - むらえず
Village Map - Muraezu
In the early modern period, these were maps made for each village. Many were colored. They vary in size, but most are on a scale of about 1:600. Initially, they were made together with land survey books, but they were made for various reasons, such as to accompany village detail books. Some depict the general landscape, including fields, houses, roads, bridges, rivers and irrigation canals, and major temples and shrines, while others only depict the necessary parts. → Town Maps / Country Maps
