To the south of the city, the map shows the Hun River with three Chinese trading junks.
- "The five-stripe flags at the military camp west of the city's outer wall are the first National flag of the Republic of China which in February 1912 replaced the Imperial Dragon Standard, in use during only a brief period, until 1928. The five colours and sequence of the stripes are not entirely correct, which were, from top to bottom: red, yellow, blue, white and black." -- vendor's note.
