The map encompasses the enchanting realms of Laputa, Balnibari, Luggnagg, Glubbdubdrib, and Japan. Crafted by an anonymous English artist during the 18th century, this artwork transports viewers into Lemuel Gulliver's extraordinary adventures. The intricate depiction invites us to explore these fictional places with awe and curiosity. Each land possesses its own distinct characteristics: Laputa floats majestically in the sky; Balnibari captivates with its architectural marvels; Luggnagg entices with its mysterious allure; Glubbdubdrib enchants through its supernatural inhabitants; while Japan exudes cultural richness.
