 note = {application/pdf, Ancient Chinese maps depicted mountainous areas as belt-like planes and decorative lines, as seen in the maps excavated from Mawangdui 馬王堆. However, in existing maps from the Song Dynasty onward, mountains are depicted as from a bird’s-eye perspective or as side views. This change is thought to be related to the development of Shanshui paintings. It is difficult to express the steepness of the road with a belt-shaped mountainous area. Therefore, it can be inferred that the maps were drawn and colored using the blue-green shanshui painting 青緑山水
method developed in the Tang dynasty.
During the Tang and Song dynasties, large maps had to be painted or hung on walls. In that case, the wall paintings would naturally have been colored, and it is safe to assume that the maps on the hanging scrolls were also colored. The reason why is that it would seem difficult to distinguish an only white drawing on a large white silk screen. In addition, it is thought that they were colored because they were created by painters. 
In the Song Dynasty, painters dispatched from the central government were commissioned to draw topographical maps of mountains and rivers or frontier regions. Judging by the fact that maps were created by painters in the Song Dynasty, it seems that coloring was the norm. Indeed, some maps such as “Duijingtu 対境図” were colored. In addition, there were maps at local government offices that depicted “mountains, rivers and roads and topographical difficulties” at that time and the maps of local gazetteers may have based on these maps.},
