For day 9 of the #30daymapchallenge focused on the topic of "monochrome" we opted to make a map of Chūbu region.
Characterized by its mountainous terrain, Chūbu region is located in the middle of Honshū, Japan's main island. The largest city in the region is Nagoya, the capital of Aichi prefecture. Chūbu is also home to the iconic Mt. Fuji.
The country boundary data for this visual comes from Natural Earth. The hillshade was derived from Maptiler.
