The map depicts the region from the South China Sea and the Mindoro Strait to Cataduanes Island and from Fuga Island and Camiguin Island to Mindoro and the Sibuyan Sea. Roads throughout the region are highlighted in red and are not limited to Luzon alone. Roads of varying grades are also differentiated, with thick red lines denoting 'surfaced, all-weather, regularly maintained' roads, while 'partly surfaced, dry-weather' roads are marked by solid and white dashed lines.

Cities and towns throughout the region are labeled, including Manila, Pasay, and Lingayen. Bays, gulfs, points, and peninsulas all along the coast are identified as well, as are the myriad small islands surrounding Luzon. Three insets situated along the right border highlight Lingayen and the immediate vicinity, Manila Bay, and Sorsogon Bay. A small index map situated below the bottom border illustrates and identifies all thirty-three provinces depicted here.
