Now the area has been reinvigorated with restaurants, cafes, Tech, Law and local businesses and street art & sculpture. Recently an annual street party has been established with music, performance and tours of the heritage buildings.

This detailed map illustrates the town layout between Fukuro River and the outer moat, specifically focusing on the area east of the Chizu Kaido (upstream of Fukuro River). The map depicts 16 town areas of merchant quarters, with temple quarters (marked in red) situated on the eastern side. Additionally, it shows the residences assigned to samurai households (in yellow) along Fukuro River and scattered within the merchant quarters, which formed part of the overall fortifications.

Each merchant quarter records the frontage and depth of each property and the name of the owner. It is believed that this information on land ownership was documented to calculate town taxes based on frontage and depth, as well as to determine the required payments for the "juubun-ichigin" (a tax equivalent to one-tenth of the property's selling price upon sale). Therefore, this map does not provide information on current residents.

The map also contains pasted notes indicating changes in ownership, with the latest being in the second year of the Meiji era (1869). This suggests that the map was used for an extended period by town councils and other entities for land management purposes.

In total, there are six sheets of this detailed map depicting the entire castle town’s merchant quarters. The layout comprises sections labeled as Kawauchiue, Kawauchishita, Ezaki/Ue Machi/Tachikawa, Kawagaiue, Kawagaishita, and Shinhinaji.

The coastal plain is bordered on the east by a range of mountains in which spices such as pepper, cinnamon, ginger and cardamom are grown for export. And this has attracted traders from all over the world.

Take a tour of Revolutionary Paris, the home of the last queen of France, Marie Antoinette. Begin your tour at Versailles, a city within a palace, to witness the splendor of court life. Visit Tuileries Gardens where once stood the palace where the King and Queen were under house arrest. The Louvre used to hold the royal treasures, but became a museum during the Revolution. Eat at Café Procope, the oldest cafe in Paris, where the leaders Danton, Robespierre, and Marat met to discuss plans. You can eat at several establishments which serve Marie's favorite pastries, pistoles chocolates, and apple tea. Drive by and see the architecture, or visit the other sites which represent the more vivid parts of the revolutionary war that were inevitable, the change which was necessary to bring representation to all classes of people. Finish your tour by driving north to St. Denis Basilica, where the remains of King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette are interred. This map was inspired by Antonia Fraser's book, Marie Antoinette: The Journey.

I created this map to showcase the things that one can do in Quezon City - there's something to do for everyone, from food meat-lovers to vegans, or sporty people to those who enjoy people-watching. It's not as popular as other cities in Metro Manila, but Quezon City holds a lot of charm, too, and I hope this map can help show that.
