Early plan of the Imperial city of Kyoto with the surrounding countryside. Modeled on the Kaempfer-Scheuchzer map of 1727, it shows the layout of the city with the principal palaces of the Emperor and Shogun and the Temple de Daibods. A compass rose orients the map with north to the left. The map was engraved by Guillaume Dheulland originally for Charlevoix' history of Japan, and often attributed to Bellin.
