Note:
This a plan of the city of Guangzhou with its ramparts. It was published in the work 'Het gezantschap der Neêrlandtsche Oost-Indische Compagnie' of 1693 by Johannes Nieuhof. This book served as a major influence in the rise of popularity of the Orient in the early 18th century Europe. There are many boats depicted two of which are war ships. However, most of the vessels are for trade -ships and junks- denoting the importance of the city as one of the first treaty ports. At the center it can be seen a tall pagoda.
