Summary

Description
English: Ayutthaya City map around 1690. The map has Dutch descriptions. Map title: 'De Stadt Iudia' (English: The City Iudia). Made by Gijsbert Heecq, a ship's surgeon in the service of the Dutch East India Company (VOC). South of the city along the river lies the small Dutch lodge across from the district where the Portuguese and Japanese merchants were settled. The factory was enclosed by a rectangular bamboepagger (= fence) and a moat. The main building functioned as a warehouse and as living quarters for the senior Company servants. The other employees shared a number of small houses on the grounds.
