Yes, it's a lively and fun place. The shopping district is laid out in a grid pattern and is so large that it would take a whole day to explore all the streets.
Temples named "Kannon" are dedicated to the Bodhisattva Kannon, and there are many of them all over Japan. I'm not an expert, but it seems that whether the Bodhisattva Kannon is male or female varies depending on the country and era. In Japan, she is generally perceived as female, and I think many people associate the Bodhisattva Kannon with a maternal nature.
That looks like it'd be a fun place to go.

That sounds great.
Kannon Temple, is that a temple of the many-named White Goddess, Ywan Yin, Mother Mary?
"
The valley spirit never dies;
It is the woman, primal mother.
Her gateway is the root of heaven and earth.
It is like a veil barely seen.
Use it; it will never fail.
