Mapping Kyoto Streets S2012E05 - Senbon-dori

Senbon-dori is a 17-kilometer street running north-south. This thoroughfare was constructed over the Heiankyo capital's main street, known as Suzaku-oji, 1,200 years ago. But that is not all that makes this street special. It has a public bath, popular temples, a soy sauce manufacturer and ordinary spots that fascinate visitors and locals.

Let's map Senbon-dori with its everyday atmosphere that still bears cultural weight.
