This is a rare 1894 map of Beijing by the Japanese cartographer Kitaro Kumazawa (熊澤喜太郎) that details the streets and hutong of Beijing along with important buildings and sites. The map has two inset drawings of the Forbidden City (故宮, noted here in the Japanese style as 皇居) and the Zhengyang Gate (正陽門), the main southern gate to the inner city just below Tiananmen Square. A description at the right gives a brief history of Beijing and an explanation of the division of the city into inner and outer sections. (more details)
