It takes the form of a bird's-eye view, with buildings shown in perspective. As the map was orientated with north to the left, this section shows the Janiculum walls, built by Urban VIII in 1643, centred on the Porta San Pancrazio. Under the map is a panel containing nine views of churches, including the Basilicas of St Peter & St Paul.
