Kyoto's Nishijin is the city's weaving area.
Located north of Imadegawa, west of Horikawa, and extending roughly to Kitano Tenmangu Shrine, it is a large neighborhood.
And very good for cycling.
Aside from the large boulevards noted above, Nishijin is mainly narrow north-south, east-west streets with wooden homes and weaving companies.
The area contains a few small temples, narrow old streets, and a weaving center (to the right in the above photo).
