Footprint Map: light up countries, provinces and cities

Footprint Map lights up where you have been at three levels: the world, a country (Japan, Korea, US states, China and more) and cities in a province.

Footprint Map lights up the places you've been, from the whole world down to the cities in one province. Unlike Travel Map, it can split a country into its regions, so you can make a map for a single country or a single province.

Three levels

Pick one under Map scope in the widget settings:

Inside a province (cities): with China, Japan or South Korea selected, choose a province under Inside a province to light up the cities in it:

  • China: prefecture-level divisions (districts and counties for Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin and Chongqing);
  • Japan: cities and Tokyo's 23 wards (towns and villages aren't included — there are too many);
  • South Korea: si, gun and gu (plus Jeju's two administrative cities).

The province view draws each city as a dot. New widgets start with the scope that matches your content region.

Visited / Lived / Want to go, or a 5-step score

  • Three levels by default: Lived (darkest), Visited, and Want to go (dashed, not counted as visited).
  • Switch Levels to the 5-step score: Lived 5, Stayed 4, Explored 3, Stopped 2, Passed 1. The widget shows your total and the maximum (235 for Japan's 47 prefectures, like the Japanese "keikenchi" game).
  • The widget shows counts and percentages, such as "23 of 47 prefectures".

Picking places

  1. In the editor, under Places you've been, choose Visited / Lived / Want to go (or a score) first.
  2. Tap a place on the map, or tick it in the grouped list below. Search works in English, Chinese, Japanese and Korean.
  3. Tap again with the same level to remove it. Clear this scope only clears the current scope; places you picked in other scopes stay.

Your places are saved only in this widget's settings.

Map data sources

  • World dots and country / first-level shapes: Natural Earth (1:50m Admin 0 and 1:10m Admin 1, v5.1.2, public domain), simplified by us and served from our own servers.
  • City names and positions inside provinces: Wikidata (CC0), compiled in November 2026. Incheon follows the districts in effect from July 2026.
  • First-level names and tile positions for China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and the UK were compiled by us.

These maps are illustrations for keeping track of your trips, not official maps: they don't draw national borders or disputed islands, and very small islands aren't shown. We update the data when administrative divisions change.
