This place is special to me because Lincoln is the perfect city to visit with your furry friend. Beautiful cobbled streets, expansive green spaces historic attractions and unique independent businesses. Here are just a handful of cafes, restaurants, hotels and attractions that would be happy to welcome you and your dog! Many of these places offer water bowls and tasty dog treats. Sorry to everyone I couldn't fit on the map, there are so many more besides!

Dog Friendly Lincoln

This place is special to me because I'm in awe that such a little strip of coastline can hold all this abundance of wildlife and wonder. In one stroll you can experience ALL the weather, hike the trails, swim or enjoy the ocean, shop for eclectic local wares, eat home made food, and drink a locally brewed beverage. My children often have their classes on the sand dunes or watching the salmon spawn in the fall. I'm very grateful to live here.

Kerala, located in the south of India, is a land of rich green paddies, rivers and lagoons. It's often termed as " God's Own Country". 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. Fort Kochi is one such town in Kerala, which was ruled by the Portuguese from 1503 to 1682, followed by the Dutch till 1795, and then the British until the year India became independent. It is also home to the oldest European church in India which housed the gravestone of the explorer Vasco da Gama. The Kochi-Muziris Biennale, the largest art exhibition in India and the biggest contemporary art festival in Asia is held in this little heritage town.This is a heritage map taking you on a trail through the various historic structures, hidden cafes, boutique hotels and stores and the main streets of the city.

This map was created at the end of a year living as a British expat in Hanoi, Vietnam. We had so many requests from friends planning to visit Vietnam that I thought I would make a list of recommendations of our favourite things all in one place! I hope others can enjoy it too.

中文: 新版《時局圖》, 可能繪於1900年至1904年之間。作者謝纘泰用以表達19世紀末當時西方列強勢力佔侵中國地區的概況。 
English: Newer version of THE SITUATION IN THE FAR EAST (時局圖). Its author (Tse Tsan-tai, 1872-1939) depicted the western powers encroaching on China at the end of the nineteenth century in symbolic form. At the left "to be clear at a glance" (一目了然), at the right, "self-evident" (不言而喻). The bear representing Russia is intruding from the north, the bulldog head with a lion body representing the United Kingdom is in south China, with its tail around the Shantung peninsula (Wehai english colony was the seat of the British bulldog in the first version of the cartoon), the Gallic frog, is in southeast Asia, with an inscription "Fashoda", in reference to Fashoda Incident opposing Britain and France in Africa. The frog has the Hainan Island in its right hand, in reference to Guangzhouwan, and part of the Sichuan in its left hand. The bald eagle representing the United States is approaching from the Philippines (the U.S. had already invaded the Philippines at this time). On the eagle is written "Blood is thicker than water", a reference to U.S. Navy Commodore Josiah Tattnall's saying in 1859. The symbolic Sun behind Japan spreads its rays across Korea onto China, while Japan fishes for Taiwan. Qing Amban is on Tibet and chinese teacher on Mongolia and Xinjiang with turco-mongol man. Some other European countries, following Prussia, are waiting to invade China at the bottom of the map. 
Français : Nouvelle édition de « Carte de la situation politique » (時局圖), avec sur le coté gauche, « qu'on saisit à première vue » (一目了然) et à droite, « Cela va sans dire » (不言而喻). L'auteur (Tse Tsan-tai, 1872-1939) l'utilise pour exprimer l'invasion des puissances occidentale à la fin du XIXe siècle. L'ours représente la Russie au Nord, Le bulldog britannique (dessiné avec un corps de lion dont la queue entoure la Péninsule du Shandong, où se situait la colonie Britannique de Weihai), le Royaume-Uni au Sud-Est, la grenouille (vision britannique de la France), avec l'inscription Fashoda (en référence à la Crise de Fachoda, fashoda incident en anglais, opposant Britanniques et Français en Afrique), au Sud, venant d'Indochine (alors colonie française). La grenouille tient de la main droite l'île de Hainan, en référence à la possession de Kouang-Tchéou-Wan et la main gauche sur une partie du Sichuan. La Pygargue représente les États-Unis au dessus des Philippines qu'ils avaient à cette époque envahi. Le soleil du Japon caché sous derrière le pays envoie quelques rayons vers un fumeur d'opium chinois, allongé au milieu de la carte, tout en tenant d'un lasso Taïwan. Un Amban des Qing est au Tibet et un enseignant chinois, est sur la zone des turco-mongols (appelés Tartares par les européens) de Mongolie et du Xinjiang. Quelques autre pays font la queue pour envahir la Chine (en dessous de la carte) ; Prusse, suivie par d'autres pays européens, Empire austro-hongrois, Italie, Suisse...

時局圖

東アジア時局図 (1900-1904)

A very interesting 1853 (Kaei 6) Japanese world map by Suido Nakajima. Presented on a cylindrical projection, this map marks a significant advancement in Japanese globular cartography and a far more sophisticated adaptation of western cartographic standards than is evidenced in most earlier Japanese world maps. No longer reliant on 17th century Dutch maps acquired via the Dutch East India Company’s (VOC) trade concession in Nagasaki, the Japanese have here abandoned many of the antiquated cartographic notions, such as an insular California, which were common in Japanese maps of the previous decade. Japanese cartographers may have been motivated to update their traditional world view in the light of the explosion of cartographic ideas associated with the arrival in Edo Harbor of the American Commodore Matthew Perry in the same year this map was published. As a whole this map offers a sophisticated cartographic presentation of the world embracing the most up to date cartographic knowledge available in the mid-19th century. Though adapted to the Japanese printing style, this map presents a generally accurate world view. British Claims to Washington and British Columbia are noted in North America, Australia and the Pacific are accurately rendered, as are the discoveries of Vitus Bering and James Cook in the Arctic, and Africa is clearly pre-Speke. The disputed East Sea / Sea of Japan / Sea of Korea is here labeled as the Sea of Joseon (Korea), which some scholars suggests indicates Japanese acceptance of the “Sea of Korea” convention. Four hemispheres appear in the lower left quadrant, from left, the southern, northern, eastern, and western. All are on a stereographic projection. The map is printed on woodblock and hand colored in vivid, blues, greens, oranges, and yellows. A fine example of the redefined Japanese cartography style of the later Tokugawa period.

この2年間、なかなか自由に部屋を出ることは叶わず、何度旅することを夢見たろうか。
外界とアクセスをする時はマスク一枚に自由を隔てられ、本当の意味で自由になれたのは部屋の中だけだった。

この一枚の絵は、そんな世界中の旅を夢見た人が壁に地図を広げて、旅を夢見る瞬間を描いたものです。
私たちは部屋の中にいながらも世界中の隣人と繋がり、それはまた宇宙にも繋がっています。

あなたはどんな部屋からこの部屋を眺めていますか？

Pictorial view of the world. Originally issued uncolored, color was added later. Map is projected as a view from space and details the world roughly from the Equator to the North Pole and from California to India. Flora, fauna, historic events, cultural artifacts, and indigenous people are represented pictorially. The Sargasso Sea is illustrated in the middle of the Atlantic. Includes inset views illustrate places and moments of special interest including mirages in the Pacific, a ship burning at sea, Niagara Falls, Chicago, oil wells, gold mining, Hindu cremation, Chinese Junks, Tuareg warriors, an avalanche, etc. also includes lists of the nations and maritime flags. Shows sketches of some 79 individuals in 'traditional costumes'. To either side of the main view are flags of major nations, sailing ships, volcanoes, and other imagery. Include an ice free polar sea north of Greenland labeled 'Mer Libre?' No doubt this is a nod to hopes that a Northwest Passage might still exist. Union Pacific and Trans-Atlantic shipping lanes are noted. The achievements of various explorers are noted in both Africa and the Arctic.
