Kamishichiken (geisha district)
上七軒(かみしちけん)
❀
Kyoto's oldest geisha district. Its origin is traced to seven teahouses built in the Muromachi period from timber left over from rebuilding Kitano Tenman-gu; when dango dumplings were offered at Hideyoshi's Great Kitano Tea Gathering, the five-dumpling crest is said to have been born.
