We exited the bus at the Keihan Kuzuha train station, took a memorial photo and made our way to the shopping arcade, formerly the aged, everyman Norengai (\u201cNoren Street\u201d), home to several traditional eating and drinking establishments. Recently this arcade was gentrified and renamed \u201cEl Kuzuha.\u201d The older shops, many of which closed due to COVID-19, were conveniently replaced with fashionable chain restaurants.
