How London looks as a map poster
London had 9.1 million residents in 2024, and its wider metropolitan area had 15.1 million. The city stands at the head of an 80-kilometre tidal estuary leading to the North Sea.
The City of London's medieval boundaries contain a tight, irregular street pattern. Westminster's broader government streets lie to the west, while the Thames, rail approaches, and parks separate both from surrounding districts.
Area shown on your London poster
The London frame extends four kilometres around the center, taking in Westminster, the City, and several bends of the Thames. Historic streets, government blocks, rail terminals, and large parks share the view.
Leave the Thames white and draw the City's medieval streets in solid black. A lighter graphite for Westminster and the outer districts can separate their larger blocks without adding labels.
