It is the crossing name that Article 4 Kawaramachi extends over Shimogyo-ku, Kyoto-shi, Kyoto and Nakagyo-ku. In addition, it is used as a name (under an alias) to show the outskirts becoming the downtown gently.
Article 4 Kawaramachi is the crossing name at the point of intersection of an authority of Article 4 and the authority of Kawaramachi. For 4; the vehicle except the route bus is No Right Turn from 8:00 to 21:00 together. It is included in the course of the Yamahoko cruise in the Gion festival that is one of the Japan's three biggest festivals, and "the crossroads mawashi" making a left turn at our crossing is accompanied by one of the main highlight.
It becomes the downtown where around our crossing represents Kyoto-shi, and, as for the authority of Toru Teramachi, new capital poles from authorities of from the neighborhood of our crossing to Article 4 Karasuma Shijo and an authority of Kawaramachi and an authority of to Kawaramachi Article 3 Shijo to an authority of Oike, it is with the downtown that I unified.
It is right under our crossing, and there is Hankyu Corporation (Hankyu) Kyoto Line Kawaramachi Station of the station under the ground and is connected directly with Takashimaya, Koto cross Hankyu Kawaramachi in a basement. By the way, it is the place where it is past, and the neon sign of the Keihan limited express was installed in at the place where Koto cross Hankyu Kawaramachi is late years, and Hankyu acquired land.
An underground passage does not lead to Keihan Main Line Gion-Shijo Station, but I cross Article 4 Ohashi hanging over Kamogawa and am immediate, and the access to the vicinity of Keihan is good. There is Gion in the other side of Keihan Shijo Station, and there is it to this neighborhood within the range of foot.
On the other hand, a route bus communicates it directly from Kyoto Station where West Japan Railway and Central Japan Railway, Kintetsu run in.
When I use a railroad, I transfer to going Hankyu Kyoto Line to Kyoto municipal subway Karasuma Line Shijo Station or access it through an underground passage running side by side with authority of Shijo and it on foot (there is the means to change Nara Line and Keihan Main Line via Tofukuji Station).
The area around Gion-Shijo Station that was adjacent across Kawaramachi Station and Kamogawa is known as a gay town. Gay bars are in Ichinocho, Shimogyo-ku, Shimizu-cho, Nabeyacho, Nakagyo-ku, Shimokorikicho as 20 stores when they say at the location.
By the way, a hut and teahouses of the kabuki performed by young boys gathered in the Azuchimomoyama era, and Miyagawacho along close Kamokawa prospered as the red-light district that "male prostitute" (boy) attended to from Kawaramachi Station. In addition, the amusement houses served by a professional catamite of the harlotry primary occupation gathered afterwards, too.
