In north central Kyoto, not far from the Kamo River is an area known as Kitaoji.
Close by, there are a few sites - Daitokuji Temple being the best known - Otani University, and the river, but mainly it is a quiet upscale neighborhood.
For shoppers, though, the Vivre mall full of stores of good quality. The mall is located at a bus terminal and a subway stop, both of which are below the mall.
It has an LL Bean store, a good supermarket, and an excellent book store on the fourth floor.
Other nearby areas of interest are the Kyoto Botanical Gardens, and the even more upscale area of Kitayama.
