This is a chart of the South China Sea with the south coast of China and the East coast of Vietnam. The Paracel Islands roughly take the center of the map with the triangle of the 'Les Lunettes' or 'Le Cordon de S.t Antoine' on their northeast side. Quite a few toponyms are given on the coast of Vietnam but on the China coast the number of toponyms decreases.
