Today we went to a ramen restaurant near Horikawa-Matsubara.
We went down Horikawa Street and passed Ayanokoji Street, Bukkoji Street and Takatsuji Street,
and soon after we passed Horikawa Matsubara, we saw it.
By the way, Horikawa Matsubara is the intersection of Horikawa Street and Matsubara Street.
Kyoto has a lot of intersections, and every one of them has a name, and each name is a combination of street names.
For example, Shijo Karasuma is the intersection of Shijo Street and Karasuma Street.
This is very handy to remember.
You can easily find out where you are just by looking at the address,
and when you get in a cab, you can tell the driver where you'd like to go just by saying the name of the intersection.
