Just south of Shijo - Karasuma is the sleek urban mall with the clunky name Cocon Karasuma.
"Cocon" is a direct transliteration of 古今. The first kanji means "old," the second "now."
The mall consists of several floors of shops and galleries, bars and restaurants. On the third floor is the Kyoto Cinema, which shows arty films from around the world.
In the back of the first floor, a foldable bike was strategically placed in the ACTUS store's show window.
We are not sure if it was for sale or merely decorative.
