Muromachi-dori
Muromachi-dori was the location of the Ashikaga Shogun residence and the administrative center during the Muromachi Period from the 14th to 16th centuries; hence, its name. This 8.1-kilometer street running north south through the city center was once Kyoto's main street.
Many long established stores lining this street were purveyors to the Imperial Palace, located nearby. Muromachi-dori was also a wholesale district for quality textiles. The Kyotoites we meet along here are active in keeping this history of excellence alive for future generations.
In this episode, we will introduce Kyoto dolls, which have their origins in court culture; the much-loved flavors of home cooking; and non-Japanese mastering the traditional performing arts. People along this street develop and improve Kyoto's centuries-old culture.
