On the left side of the picture title on the top there is also Sun Yat-sen's handwritten notes on the current situation of road construction in China. The content seems to be written in 1904 or 1905. Due to the large area of the map about 73 square centimeters if the plate is reduced the place names in the map will not be recognizable so this book does not include the figure and its legend and other texts are included." . en-wikipedia-org/wiki/Sun_Yat-sen taiwantoday.tw/news.phpunit=4&post=6275 . unknown
