Japanese: 平安時代から現在の三条釜座近辺に、釜師（茶釜などの鋳物職人）が住む「釜座」（かまんざ）が集まっていたことからこの名がある。

Japanese: これらの区画は当初貴族の邸宅や官吏の住居に利用されていたが、建物が直接通りに接するか否かでの有利不利は特になかった。
English: With the development of commerce, however, an increasing number of houses were built with their front facing the street due to the inherent advantage of such construction.
Japanese: しかし商業が発達してくると、通りに面した位置が有利であることから、間口が通りに向いた形の建物が増加した。
English: By the Muromachi period almost all houses were built facing a street, and thereby areas on both sides of a street began to constitute a 'machi' (Both-side town (Ryogawa machi)).

English: Meanwhile, central parts of the squares that did not face a street became vacant lots and were rarely used.
Japanese: 一方、通りに接しない正方形の中心部は空き地などになり、あまり利用されていなかった。
English: In 1590, Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI built roads between north-south streets, making the vacant lots into new 'machi.'
Japanese: 1590年（天正18年）、豊臣秀吉は南北方向の通りの中間に新たに通りを建設し、これまで空き地だったところを新たな「町」にした。

English: Many of the then newly built roads have their northern ends around Marutamachi-dori Street and southern ends around Gojo-dori Street.
Japanese: 新設された通りの北端は丸太町通、南端は五条通付近となっているものが多い。
English: The new zoning did not create new streets in an area around Shijo Karasuma-dori Street (central Shimogyo), because it had been already urbanized.
Japanese: また四条通烏丸通を中心とする一帯（下京の中心部）は、地割以前から十分に市街地が発達していたため、通りの新設は行なわれなかった。
English: For reference, Kenryo ASHIKAGA, a historical geographer advocated a theory that some of the north-south streets were built not by Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI but by trades people from Kyoto and their northern ends were located at Oshikoji-dori Street.
Japanese: なお、歴史地理学者の足利健亮は、南北の新設道路のすべてが秀吉によって作られたのではなく、一部は後の時代に京都の町衆によって作られたものであり、北端も押小路通までだった、とする説を提唱した。
English: The word Kyo no Nanakuchi (Seven Entrances to Kyoto) was used to collectively refer to the entrances of roads leading to Kyo (Kyoto).
Japanese: 京の七口（きょうのななくち）とは、京（京都）につながる街道の代表的な出入口の総称として用いられる。
English: The locations and names of the entrances indicating the Seven Entrances are not clearly defined, because they differ depending on historical materials.
Japanese: 七口として示される出入口の場所および名称は史料によっても異なり、定まっていない。
English: Although 'Kuchi' (literally meaning a mouth) --a word that refers to the entrances of Kyoto--seems to have been used to refer to the entrance in the late Kamakura period, we can see their descriptions in historical records of the subsequent Muromachi period as a seki (choking station); during the Muromachi period authorative organizations such as the bakufu (Japanese feudal government headed by a shogun), temples, and the Imperial court (or nobles) started to establish checking stations called 'Nanakuchi no seki' at the entrances to Kyoto and other locations to levy travelers sekisen (tolls).
Japanese: 京の出入口を表す言葉としての「口」は、鎌倉時代後半から使われていたようであるが、室町時代になるとその出入口をはじめとして、幕府、寺社、朝廷（公家）などさまざまな主体が「七口の関」と称される関（関所）を設け関銭（通行料）を徴収するようになったため、記録に関として「口」がみられるようになる。
English: Some records say that a total of seven checking stations were established by the bakufu and Imperial court.
Japanese: その記録を見ると、幕府や朝廷が設置した関の数を7つとするものが見られる。
English: For example, "Kennaiki" (diary of Tokifusa MADENOKOJI) says that the Imperial court established the following seven checking stations of Mizushidokoro (a government office) and assigned officials to levy taxes: Yase, Imamichi. Tojiguchi, Hossho-ji, Toba, Shichijoguchi, and Nagasakaguchi.
Japanese: たとえば、『建内記』によると、1441年に朝廷は御厨子所の率分関を、八瀬、今道の下、東寺口、法性寺、鳥羽、七条口、長坂口の七ヶ所に設置し代官をおいたとある。
English: The locations of checking stations, however, differed from organization to organization.
Japanese: ただし、各主体の関が同じ場所に設置されたわけでなく、場所はまちまちである。
English: The number of checking stations differed occasionally; check stations for taxes by Kuraryo (Bureau of Palace Storehouses) were establilshed at Awataguchi, Oharaguchi, and Shinomiyakawara in 1333, but after the Onin War they increased to include Kowataguchi, Sakamotoguchi, Kuramaguchi, Nishiguchi (Sagaguchi), Minamiguchi, Yodoguchi Settsu Akutagawa, Nasshozeki, and Tatsumiguchi.
Japanese: また、時期によって関の数は異なっており、例えば内蔵寮による率分関については、1333年には長坂口、粟田口、大原口、四宮河原関が設けられていたが、応仁の乱以降は増加して木幡口、坂本口、鞍馬口、西口（嵯峨口）、南口、淀口、摂津芥川、納所関、辰巳口が挙げられている。
English: In more recent years in the Edo period, the word 'Nanakuchi' came to be widely used to refer to entrances to Kyoto.
Japanese: 時代が下がり江戸時代に入ると、京の出入口を表す言葉として、「七口」という表現が一般的に使われるようになる。
English: Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI built Odoi or embankment around Kyoto as a part of his reconstruction of Kyoto, which is considered to have helped people easily imagine the entrance to Kyoto as 'kuchi' --an opening between the walls--and contributed to common use of the word 'Nanakuchi.'
Japanese: 豊臣秀吉が京都改造の一環として、京の周囲を囲む惣構である御土居を築き、京の出入口を土塁に開いた「口」として具現化したことが「七口」という表現を一般的なものとする大きな役割を果たしたと考えられる。
English: For this reason, it is believed that Hideyoushi TOYOTOMI provided seven entrances when he built Odoi, but "Sanmyakuinki" (diary of Nobutada KONOE) says that there were ten entrances.
Japanese: そのため、秀吉が御土居建造当時に穿った出入口が7つであったとする俗説があるが、建造当時の出入口は『三藐院記』によると十口とある。
English: Also some claim that historical materials imply that there were extra entrances are no longer included in the entrances to Kyoto.
Japanese: また、現在では京の七口として数えられていない部分にも出入口があったことが当時の史料から読みとれるとの指摘がある。
English: The most widely accepted theory is that 'Nana' (Seven) does not come from the number of the entrances but from a concept of an ancient administrative division called five provinces and seven circuits (Gokishichido) -- Kyoto is the center of Gokishichido and the entrances lead to seven circuits, or provinces.
Japanese: そこで、「七」は数を示すのではなく、古代の日本の行政区画概念である「五畿七道」の中心にあり、その「七道」すなわち地方諸国へつながっていることを表すというのがルーツであるとする説が有力である。
English: Cited below are typical entrances often included in Seven Entrances to Kyoto, and are named in clockwise order from the north along with relevant information such as locations of the entrances from which roads extend and the place-names that remain to this day.
Japanese: 以下に、現代において七口の一つとよく称される代表的な口の名称を示し、そこからのびていた街道、口の場所についての情報や現存する地名などについて北から時計回りに記す。
English: The Wakasa Kaido (also known as Saba Kaido), a road leading to Wakasa via Yase and Ohara extended from this entrance.
Japanese: 八瀬、大原を経て朽木、若狭につながる鯖街道（別名鯖街道）がのびていた。
English: A road corresponding to the current Kyoto prefectural highway/Shiga Prefectural highway No. 30 Shimogamo Otsu Line (also known as Shigagoe, Imamichigoe, or Shirakawagoe) extended from this entrance to Lake Biwa Nishiomiji via the Shiga Pass that runs from Kitashirakawa to Sufuku-ji Temple.
Japanese: 北白川から、崇福寺に通ずる志賀峠を経て、琵琶湖・西近江路へとつながる京都府道・滋賀県道30号下鴨大津線（志賀越、今道越、白川越とも言われた）がのびていた。
English: Though Odoi was built west of Sanjo Ohashi Bridge over the Kamo-gawa River (west of the Kawaramachi-Sanjo Crossing), a check station was established on the east bank of the Kamo-gawa River in and after the early-modern age and thus the place name Awataguchi remains near Keage.
Japanese: 御土居が設けられたのは鴨川三条大橋の西岸（河原町三条交差点の西側）であるが、近世以前に鴨川の東岸に関が設けられたことがあり、蹴上の近くに粟田口という地名が残っている。
English: Extended from this entrance were the Saigoku kaido continuing west via Yamazaki and Nishinomiya and the Toba kaido leading to Yodo via Toba.
Japanese: 山崎、西宮を経て西に続く西国街道、鳥羽を経て淀に至る鳥羽街道がのびていた。
English: However, when the railway was elevated, the station was relocated north to an area south of Gojo-Senbon Crossing.
Japanese: ただし、駅は高架化に伴い北に移動し、五条千本交差点の南側に位置している。
English: The road continuing to Shuzan and Wakasa served as a highway toward Shuzan until the opening of the Shuzan kaido (Current National Highway Route No. 162).
Japanese: そこから周山、若狭へと道がつながっており、周山街道（現在の国道162号）が開通するまでは、こちらが周山へと向かう道であった。

Japanese: 平安京には存在せず、豊臣秀吉による天正の地割で新設された通りである。
English: There was a street which possessed the same name of Tomikoji, which corresponds to the current Fuyacho-dori Street running a block east.
Japanese: 平安京にも同名の富小路があるが、これは一本東の現在の麩屋町通である。
English: In the north it originally ran to Shimotachiuri-dori Street but the section north of Marutamachi-dori Street was closed due to the extension of the Imperial Palace after the Great Fire of Hoei in the early 18th century.
Japanese: 当初、北は下立売通まであったが、18世紀初頭の宝永の大火後に御所域が拡大され、丸太町通までで閉塞してしまった。
English: The section south of the Rokujo-dori Street may be regarded as an extension of the Yanaginobanba-dori Street, because the section south of the Gojo-dori Street curves slightly westward
Japanese: 五条通以南で通りはやや西に曲がっており、六条通以南は柳馬場通の延長とみなされる場合もある。
English: This area used to be Rokujogawara and a district in south of the current Gojo-dori Street has another name, Shimoderamachi (literally meaning lower temple town), because it is like Teranomachi where temples were forced to move according to the Kyoto reconstruction plan of Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI.
Japanese: この辺りは、往時の六条河原であり、また、秀吉の京都改造では、この現代の五条通以南にも、寺町通や寺之内と同様に、寺院が集中して移転されたため、下寺町（しもでらまち）という別称も存在する。
English: In 1589 Kyoto's or Japan's largest brothel named Nijo Yanagimachi was located around the intersection with Nijo-dori Street.
Japanese: 1589年（天正17年）、二条通との交差点付近に『二条柳町』という、京都一、言い換えれば当時日本一の遊廓が設けられた。
English: It is said to have been built by order of Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI and surrounded by a row of beautiful willow trees.
Japanese: これは豊臣秀吉の肝いりであったとされ、その周りには綺麗な柳の並木が形成されていたらしい。
English: In 1602, however, the brothel was relocated to Rokujo due to the extension of the Nijo-jo Castle.
Japanese: しかし、この遊廓は1602年（慶長7年）に二条城の造営に伴って六条に移転した。
English: In 1604 the vacant land after the relocation was a venue for a large-scale horse competition show or parade, which explains the origin of the name of the street.
Japanese: その跡地で1604年（慶長9年）の豊国祭臨時祭礼において大規模な馬揃えが行なわれ、これが通り名の由来となった。
English: During the Heian period large mansions were located along this street; the residence of KI no Tsurayuki was in the northern area of the street; Kawaranoin's (MINAMOTO no Toru's) mansion was in the southern area.
Japanese: 平安時代には通りの北域は紀貫之邸が、南には河原院（源融邸）という広大な邸宅があった。
English: The second Shogunate Yoshiakira ASHIKAGA had his mansion around Nishikikoji Street, the third Shogunate Yoshimitsu ASHIKAGA around Sanjo-dori Street, and the fourth Shogunate Yoshimochi ASHIKAGA once had his around Rokkaku-dori Street.
Japanese: 二代将軍足利義詮は錦小路に、三代将軍足利義満は三条通に、四代将軍足利義持も一時六角通に邸宅を構えていたのである。
English: During the Edo period the area still had traces of such mansions and were occupied by Kyoto mansions of feudal domains such as Arima Domain, Ogasawara Domain, Uesugi Domain of Yonezawa, and Satake Domain of Akita.
Japanese: 江戸時代に入ってもその名残はあり、有馬藩、小笠原藩、米沢の上杉藩、秋田の佐竹藩の各京屋敷があった。
English: It did not exist in Heiankyo and was built by Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI according to his Tensho zoning policy.
Japanese: 平安京には存在せず、豊臣秀吉による天正の地割で新設された通りである。
English: During the Sengoku period (period of Warring States, Jaoan) when Kyoto was in its twilight, the street is said to have provided a boundary which defined downtown and farms, and became the origin for the name of the street.
Japanese: 通り名の由来は、戦国時代_(日本)に京都の町が衰退していたころには、このあたりが京の街と田畑との境界であったこととされる。
English: The town names of 'Sugiyacho' and 'Marukizaimokucho' remain because many lumber dealers were located along this street during the Edo period.
Japanese: 江戸時代には通り沿いに多くの材木商があり、今も「杉屋町」・「丸木材木町」などの町名が残っている。
English: It is divided between Aneyakoji-dori Street and Takatsuji-dori Street and between Matsubara-dori Street and Manjuji-dori Street.
Japanese: 途中姉小路通と高辻通の間、および松原通と万寿寺通の間で分断されている。
English: According to a theory, the name comes from the way the street (corresponding to the area between the current Gojo-dori Street and the Shichijo-dori Street) divided a district in front of the gate of Shinshu Honbyo - old and new areas partitioned by the zoning - into east and west sides.
Japanese: 一説では、真宗本廟門前に地割された新旧二つの門前町を東西に二分した通りであることから生まれた名称であるともいう（現在の五条通から七条通の間に相当する）。
English: No new streets were built in the area due to the zoning between Aneyakoji-dori Street and Takatsuji-dori Street, because it had been already urbanized.
Japanese: 姉小路通と高辻通の間では地割以前から町が十分に発達していたため、通りの新設は行なわれなかった。
English: The Akezunomon-dori Street, located along the southern extension of the Kurumayacho-dori Street, runs in the north from the gate of Byodo-ji Temple, Matsubara-dori Street agaru to Shiokoji-dori Street north of Kyoto Station in the south.
Japanese: 不明門通（あけずのもんどおり）は車屋町通を南へ延長した線上にあり、北は松原通上ルの平等寺門前から、南は京都駅北の塩小路通まで。
English: A section along the east side of the Shinshu Honbyo merges with Karasuma-dori Street, because Karasuma-dori street was arranged slightly east to avoid the private road of Higashihongan-ji Temple when it was widened in order to make way for the Kyoto City Karasuma Line tram.
Japanese: 途中真宗本廟の東側では、烏丸通拡幅により敷設された京都市電烏丸線が門の直前の東本願寺の私道を避けて東に回り込んだことから、不明門通と烏丸通が一体となっている。
English: The name of the street comes from the gate of Inaba Yakushido (Byodo-ji Temple) located at its northern end, which was always closed.
Japanese: 通り名の由来は、北端にある因幡薬師堂（平等寺）の門が常に閉ざされていたことから。
English: It is more commonly called 'Akezu-dori' rather than 'Akezunomon-dori.'
Japanese: 「あけずのもんどおり」と呼ばれることは稀であり、通常は「あけずどおり」と呼ばれている。
English: There are many inns, stations or loggings for sectarians visiting from all parts of the county, and shops of Buddhist altar articles because the area between the Rokujo-dori Street and the Shichijo-dori Street is near Higashihongan-ji Temple.

English: A kinza (literally, gold za, or gold mint) was established by Ieyasu TOKUGAWA around the intersection with Oshikoji-dori Street in 1600 and a ginza (literally, silver za, or silver mint) was moved from Fushimi to an area south of the kinza in 1608.
Japanese: 1600年（慶長5年）、押小路通との交差点付近に徳川家康によって金座(歴史)が設けられ、さらに1608年（慶長13年）には銀座(歴史)が伏見から金座の南に移転した。

Japanese: 北端に近い寺之内通上ルには表千家の不審菴、裏千家の今日庵が並んでいる。
English: There are several public offices along the section between Shimochojamachi-dori Street and Shimotateuri-dori Street, because the area is near the Kyoto Prefectural Government.
