#london

Map of Greenwich & Blackwall, London. Features are drawn in black, and the background is sepia. The River Thames is filled in with a series of concentric lines. Buildings are shown with grey hatching. The cable car across the Thames is shown as a dot-dash line, and is labelled Cable Car, and the under construction Silvertown tunnel is shown as a pair of dashed lines.
An absurdist map. Titled: Best Restaurants in Tokyo. But showing a mirror imaged version London (UK), with the river Thames running through it. There are two green squares denoted 'you are here'; and the legend entires for 'hospital' and 'firework/party shop' share the same symbol: an orange star. The scale bar is of length 7343.91 m. The North arrow shows that North is up, and that east is to the left. The grid ticks read 'S O N I C' on the y-axis and 'B A D G E R' on the x-axis. The inset map that is supposed to show the extent of the main map is centered on London, Ontario.
