Map of tweets by locals versus tourists, #Kyoto. How frustrating—no dates, no basemaps!
But I think the big blob of red is Kyoto Station, and the cluster of red/blue northeast of that is Kawaramachi/Gion/Nishiki/etc. I can also pick out Arashiyama to the west.
Meanwhile. https://www.mapbox.com/labs/twitter-gnip/brands/#8/35.299/-223.102 has a much cooler way to give geographic context.
