English: There are several well-known traditional songs whose words are made up of the names of the east-west and north-south running streets of central Kyoto City, to help learn the names by heart.
Japanese: 京都市の中心部の東西・南北の通りの名を覚えるために、通りの名前を編み込んだ唄がいくつか知られている。
English: One is called Teragoko for north-south running streets, and the other is Marutake Ebisu for east-west running streets, the names of which are the first portions of the words.
Japanese: 節の最初を取り、南北の通りについては寺御幸（てらごこ）、東西の通りについては丸竹夷（まるたけえびす）とも呼ばれる。
English: In addition, Marutake Ebisu has been passed down by word of mouth generation after generation, while Teragoko was once lost but was revised with the help of historical data.
Japanese: なお、丸竹夷が口伝えに伝えられてきたものであるのに対し、寺御幸は一度途絶えてしまったものを、過去の史料をもとに再編したものである。
English: In commercial films, Teragoko was used by the Bank of Kyoto and Marutake Ebisu was used by Shogoin Yatsuhashi (cinnamon cookie dough).
Japanese: 京都銀行が寺御幸を、聖護院八ツ橋が丸竹夷をコマーシャル・メッセージで使ったこともある。
English: These songs were also sung in "Detective Conan: Crossroad in the Ancient Capital," the movie version of the TV series "Meitantei Konan (Detective Konan)."

English: In songs traditionally sung, which include Jujo-dori Street in their words as in the song above, the streets are put in an order that is different from what they are in fact put; for example, Santetsu-dori Street (Shiokoji-dori Street) comes earlier than Shichijo-dori Street, and To-ji Temple on Kujo-Street is combined with Jujo-Street.
Japanese: 古くから歌い慣らされているのは、上記の通り、十条通を歌い込むものだが、三哲通（塩小路通）が七条通より早く歌われるとともに、九条通にある東寺を十条通とともに掲げるなど、実際の通りの順序と異なって歌われている。

Japanese: 多くは袋小路で、表の通りから路地への入り口には、門が設けられたり住民の表札が掲げられたりすることがよくある。
English: As described above, alleys in Kyoto are quite inside-focused and exhibit a clear contrast to the road, which allows the free passage of strangers.
Japanese: このように、京都における路地はきわめて内部的なもので、部外者の通行が自由である通りとは画然とした区別がある。
English: The width varies from alley to alley; some are too narrow for two persons to walk past each other, but others are wide enough for two keicar (light motor vehicles) to pass each other.
Japanese: 道幅は人の擦れ違いが出来ないようなものから、軽自動車が行き違えるようなものまで様々である。
English: A pathway found between buildings and crossing Pontocho-dori Street and Kiyamachi-dori Street can be a traditional alley that survives the modernization of the buildings.

English: Zushi refers to a road that has been made open as a passage by connecting two dead ends of alleys.
Japanese: 袋小路の路地の突き当たりを貫通させ、通路として開放したものを図子（ずし、辻子とも表記する）と呼ぶ。
English: Some zushis are called 'Kodo-zushi,' and others 'Monya-zushi.'
Japanese: 図子には「革堂図子」や「紋屋図子」など、名前がつけられているものがある。
English: The zushi gives aspects different from 'Tori' (or streets) in Kyoto, which are straight and offer distant views.

Japanese: 東は川端通から西は太秦の天神川通までの4.9キロメートルであるが、途中二条駅で分断されている。
English: Although some say the name Oike originates from a nearby pond of Shinsenen, a topography titled 'Kyo Suzume' (Kyoto sparrow) published in 1665 says, 'This Sanjo Bomondono street is called Hachimancho-dori in the east, …Oike-dori in the west, as there was Oikecho at Muromachi on this street; long ago the Imperial Palace Kamoidono (palace of ducks) was there, and it had the pond with ducks; this place is supposed to be.'
Japanese: 神泉苑の傍を通るため、この名前になったというが、江戸時代初期の1665年（寛文5年）発行の地誌「京雀」には「【三条坊門通】この筋を東にては八幡町通と云、…、西にては御池通と云、此筋室町に御池町あり、むかし鴨居殿とて御所あり、鴨の下居池の井ありける跡也とかや」とある。

Japanese: 池も含めて二条殿の地は、二条家の邸跡で、織田信長の「二条新御所（二条城）」の故地でもある。
English: The theory of Oike-dori named after the Shinsenen has emerged recently and may have to give way to the theory of Oike-dori as named after the Nijodono Oike.
Japanese: 「御池通神泉苑起源説」は近来興った説で、「二条殿御池起源説」に従うべきだろう。
English: The eastern-end section between Kawabata-dori Street and Horikawa-dori Street is eight lanes wide because, during World War II, houses along the street were forced to move in order to create a fire-blocking belt.

English: This section having side roads was lined with 212 tall, fully grown zelkova trees, which were planted along the median strip and the side divider in 1953 or later.
Japanese: かつて当該区間には側道があり、中央分離帯及び側道分離帯には1953年以降に植樹され大きく成長した212本のケヤキの街路樹もあった。

Japanese: しかし、地下鉄東西線建設工事を控えて1990年-1991年に撤去され、梅小路公園へ移植された。
English: Today in this section, the streetlights, traffic lights and signs guiding travelers to the north-south roads are of a unified design.
Japanese: 現在では、道路照明灯、信号機、南北方向の交差道路の標柱などのデザインが統一されている。
English: Two hundred and twenty-three new zelkova trees have been planted along the street between the sidewalk and the driving lane, but they are still incomparable with the previous excellent roadside trees; it will take more than 20 years for the new trees to grow as tall.

Japanese: 地下では地下鉄東西線の延伸工事がなされ2008年1月16日に太秦天神川駅まで開業した。
English: At the same time, construction work on the ground continued, and as a result Oike-dori Street now runs over Tenjingawa-dori Street and Uzumasa-tenjingawa-ekimae Terminal, and goes west to cross Sanjo Street.
Japanese: 同時に地上部分の舗装も進み、御池通も天神川通を越えて太秦天神川駅前ターミナル、さらに西の三条通へと交差する形となった。
English: Sanjo-dori Street and Oike-dori Street run parallel east and west in the inner city, but in the west of Nishioji-dori Street, Sanjo-dori Street turns moderately northwest, causing the two streets to intersect.
Japanese: 三条通と御池通は旧市街地内では平行して走る東西の道路であるが、三条通が西大路通以西でやや北西に傾くため交差することとなる。
English: The crossing between Oike-dori Street and Sanjo-dori Street was called 'Sanjo-oike,' in accordance with the common practice of naming streets in Kyoto City.
Japanese: 御池通と三条通の交差点名は、京都市地理に従い「三条御池」と名付けられた。

English: (The route to Kyoto did not follow the present-day National Highway Route No. 367 but was instead a mountain track via Omione Ridge.)
Japanese: (往時の鯖街道は現在の国道367号ではなく、大見尾根を経由する山道であった）。
English: In a broader sense, any road through which seafood was carried was called the saba road.
Japanese: なお、広義では若狭地方から京都へ海産物を運んだ街道全てを鯖街道と呼ぶ。

Japanese: また、当時のルート（小浜市⇔京都市左京区出町柳、76km）を走り通す「鯖街道マラソン」が毎年開催されている。
English: This race is also known as the Ultra Mountain Marathon or the Sabakaido Maranic (marathon and picnic), because the majority of the route is unpaved with dramatic changes in elevation.
Japanese: ルートの大半が未舗装路であり、高低差も大きいことから、別名「ウルトラ山岳マラソン鯖街道マラニック（マラソン＋ピクニック）」とも呼ばれる。
English: Some refer to the air route from Norway to Japan as 'the modern-day mackerel road.'

Japanese: 天皇が京都駅から京都御所へ行くための通路として拡幅されたためである。

Japanese: 都市の中心部を東西に貫き、ほとんどの区間で一般国道に指定されている主要幹線である。
English: The east of Horikawa Gojo is National Highway Route No. 1, and the west of Karasumaru Gojo is National Highway Route No. 9 (the section between Karasuma Gojo and Horikawa Gojo is shared with National Highway Route No. 1).
Japanese: 国道の名称としては堀川五条以東は国道1号であり、烏丸五条以西は国道9号（烏丸五条-堀川五条は国道1号と重複）である。
English: Additionally, it is shared by National Highway Route No. 8 (east of Karasuma Gojo) and National Highway Route No. 162 (between Tenjingawa Gojo and Nishioji Gojo).
Japanese: また国道8号（烏丸五条以東）、国道162号（天神川五条-西大路五条）の重複区間でもある。
English: In the east, the street starting around Gojozaka Crossing with Higashioji-dori Street is called Gojozaka.
Japanese: 通りの東は東大路通との交差点である五条坂交差点付近から五条坂と呼ばれる。
English: The street from Gojozaka Crossing is narrow toward Kiyomizu-dera Temple but merges with Matsubara-dori Street (at the eastern end of Matsubara-dori Street).
Japanese: 五条坂交差点からは清水寺に向かう細い道となり、松原通（松原通の東端部）と合流する。
English: National Highway Route No. 1, after it crosses Higashioji-dori Street, becomes the Gojo Bypass, merges with Shibutani-dori Street, runs through Higashiyama (Kyoto Prefecture) and continues to Yamashina Basin (the Gojo Bypass running in Yamashina Ward is widely referred to as Gojo-dori Street).
Japanese: なお、国道1号は東大路通を立体交差で越えて五条バイパスとなり、渋谷通と合流して東山(京都府)を越え山科盆地へ続く(この山科区における五条バイパスも含めて、ひろく五条通と呼ばれることもある)。
English: In the west the street, designated as National Highway Route No. 9, crosses the Nishiohashi Bridge of Katsura River (Yodo-gawa water system), goes to Katsura and leads to the Kutsukake Interchange of the Kyoto Jukan Jidoshado Expressway.
Japanese: 西は国道9号として、桂川(淀川水系)の西大橋を経て桂から京都縦貫自動車道沓掛インターチェンジに繋がる。
English: It was originally called Gojo-dori Street because the Gojo-ohashi Bridge crossing the Kamo-gawa River (Yodo-gawa water system) was moved to Rokujo-bomon-koji Street by Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI, who wanted to visit Hoko-ji Temple.
Japanese: 豊臣秀吉が、方広寺参拝のため、鴨川(淀川水系)に架かる五条大橋を六条坊門小路に移設したため、この通りが五条通となった。
English: The school anthem 'Ushiwakamaru' begins with, 'On a bridge of Gojo in Kyoto,' and the statues of Ushiwakamaru and Benkei stand at the western end of the Gojo-ohashi Bridge and on the median strip of the street.
Japanese: 唱歌「牛若丸」の歌い出しには「京の五条の橋の上」とあり、現在の五条大橋の西詰、五条通の中央分離帯に牛若丸と弁慶の像が置かれている。
English: Considering that the Gojo-ohashi Bridge in the era of Ushiwakamaru and Benkei was located on the former Gojo-oji Street (the present-day Matsubara-dori Street), the historical evidence may not be properly examined, but the encounter of Ushiwakamaru with Benkei on Gojo-ohashi Bridge, which in fact occurred in a different place, may have been a contrived tale.
Japanese: なお、牛若丸と弁慶の時代の五条大橋は、元の五条大路である松原通の方に架かる橋にあたるため、時代考証上の不備のように思われるが、牛若丸と弁慶の出会いはもともと五条大橋とは別の場所であったものを、後年作り話として「五条の橋の上」と設定したものに過ぎない。
English: During World War II, houses along the section between Higashioji Street and Senbon-dori Street were forced to move in order to build a fire-blocking belt, like in Oike-dori Street and Horikawa-dori Street; however, after the war, the street was widened to about 50 meters using the site.
Japanese: 東大路通から千本通までの区間は御池通や堀川通同様、第二次世界大戦末期に防火帯形成のため建物疎開が行われ、戦後、その用地を利用して幅員約50mに道路が整備された。
English: In the west, the street turns south after crossing Kadonoji-dori Street and merges with Hachijo-dori Street at the eastern end of Katsura-Ohashi Bridge, which straddles the Katsura River (Yodo-gawa Water System).
Japanese: 西は葛野大路通を越えて南に曲がり桂川(淀川水系)に架かる桂大橋東詰で八条通と合流する。
English: During modern times, the border between Rakuchu and Rakugai was around Nanajo-Senbon, from which Sanin-kaido Road ran in such a manner that Shichijo-dori Street was extended westward.
Japanese: 近世においては、現在の七条千本付近が洛中・洛外の境界であり、そこから七条通を西に延ばす形で山陰街道が続いていた。
English: However, in the late Meiji period the street was widened between Higashioji-dori Street and Omiya-dori Street according to the three major city plans of Kyoto City; later, according to a city plan in the Taisho and early Showa eras, the western end of the wide street was extended to Nishioji-dori Street in order to lay the rails for Kyoto City trams.
Japanese: 明治末期の京都市三大事業によって東大路通から大宮通まで、その後の大正-昭和初期の都市計画事業によって西は西大路通までが拡幅され、京都市電が敷設された。
English: Consequently, the street west of Nishioji-dori Street is still narrow but there remain traces of the Historic Highway in the east side of Katsura Ohashi Bridge or around Katagihara on Sanin-kaido Road (Old Sanin-kaido Road).
Japanese: そのため、西大路通以西は道幅が細くなっており、桂大橋の東側や山陰街道（旧山陰街道）の樫原付近では旧街道の面影が残されている。
English: The correct pronunciation of '七条' is 'Shichijo,' but local people may pronounce it as 'Hichijo' or 'Hiccho.
Japanese: なお、「七条」の正しい読みは「しちじょう」だが、地元の人々には「ひちじょう」もしくは「ひっちょう」と読まれることもある。
English: On the city buses, bus stops starting with 七条 are intentionally pronounced 'Nanajo.'
Japanese: なお、京都市営バスのバス停留所名で七条を冠したものはあえて「ななじょう」と読ませている。
English: It runs east-west, linking the Kamo-gawa River (Yodo-gawa River System) and the Katsura-gawa River (Yodo-gawa River System) nearly throughout, with the section between Onmae-dori Street and Senbon-dori Street divided by the tracks (railway) of the Tokaido Main Line.
Japanese: 東西はほぼ鴨川(淀川水系)から桂川(淀川水系)までを結ぶが、途中、御前通-千本通が東海道本線の線路(鉄道)で分断されている。
English: With the opening of the Tokaido Shinkansen, the four-lane street south of Kyoto Station has become busy.
Japanese: 京都駅の南側は4車線以上ある大通りで、東海道新幹線の開通によって発展した。
English: A camphor tree on the side of the street has a story; the tracks of the Kyoto City Trams were laid out in order to avoid the tree for fear that cutting it down might invoke a curse of TAIRA no Kiyomori.
Japanese: そこのクスノキは切ると平清盛の祟りがあるとのことで、京都市電を通すときも避けられたという。
English: This is why Nishioji-dori Street is a winding one, particularly in this section, even after the abolishment of the City Trams.
Japanese: そのため、市電が廃止された現在でも西大路通はそこの部分だけ蛇行している。
English: It runs from the eastern end--the intersection with Honmachi-dori Street (Kyoto) (Honmachi-dori Jujo) --to the western end (the intersection with Nishioji-dori Street (Nishioji-Jujo)).
Japanese: 東端の本町通(京都)との交差点（本町通十条）から西端の西大路通との交差点（西大路十条）に至る。
English: The street has no relationship to the oji-koji (alleys and main streets) of Heian-kyo; it was developed later in the modern era to the south of Kujo-dori Street.
Japanese: 平安京の大路小路とは関係のない、近代になってから九条通の南に作られた通りである。
English: Additionally, the Hanshin Expressway Route 8 Kyoto Line (tentative name) was completed in such a manner that Jujo-dori Street has been extended to the east as a new road connecting central Kyoto and Yamashina Ward.
Japanese: また、京都市中心部と山科区を結ぶ新たな道路として、十条通を東方に延長する形で阪神高速道路8号京都線（阪神高速道路8号京都線便宜上の路線区間の名称）が完成した。
English: It is connected to Higashioji-dori Street at Higashiyama-bashi-higashizume of the Kamo-gawa River (Yodo-gawa River system) in the east, and it meets Kadonooji-dori Street in the west.
Japanese: 東は鴨川(淀川水系)の東山橋東詰で東大路通につながり、西は葛野大路通に突き当たる。
English: Its course greatly differs from that in the Heian period because the street now turns moderately southward from the west side of the Senbon-dori Street and also extends south from Nishioji-dori Street.
Japanese: 千本通から西でやや南へ、西大路通からはさらに大きく南に振れていて、平安時代のものとは大きくずれている。
English: The Rajomon Gate was not repaired after being ruined by a destructive storm in 980, so today only a monument is left in its place.
Japanese: その羅城門は980年（天元(日本)3）に暴風雨で倒壊した後には再建されず、現在は碑が立っているのみとなっている。
English: Kyoto City Trams, which opened in 1939 between Higashioji-dori Street and Nishioji-dori Street, was abolished in 1978.
Japanese: 1939年（昭和14）京都市電が東大路から西大路まで全通するが、1978年（昭和53）に廃止となった。
English: The section between Abura-no-koji dori Street and Mibugawa-dori Street (Keihan-kokudo guchi) belongs to National Route 1, and the section between Mibugawa-dori Street and Kadonooji-dori Street belongs to National Route 171.
Japanese: 油小路通から壬生川通（京阪国道口）までは国道1号、壬生川通から葛野大路通にかけては国道171号となっている。
English: In the west, it ends around Hanazono in Ukyo Ward, but some refer to the street, which extends west to Seiryo-ji Temple (Saga-Shakado) in Sagano, as Ichijo-dori Street.
Japanese: 西は右京区花園付近までだが、さらに西に延長して嵯峨野の清凉寺（嵯峨釈迦堂）までを一条通と呼ぶこともある。
