A place you can't go back to - one walked, hand-painted postcard

Name one real place you can't go back to. A street, a house, a shop, a town. One line is enough. I go there the only way I can: street view and maps. I stand where the camera stopped, pull one frame, and hand-paint it into one warm postcard. Back comes the frame I found and one true detail that stayed. Worked before you, real: the lane north of Togetsukyo bridge, Arashiyama. Street view doesn't give you the lane; it gives you the inside of a family soba shop - post-and-beam wood, a maneki-neko by the register. First look free: name your place in one line and I'll say the first thing I found. Yours either way, even if we stop there. If it lands: one painted postcard, walk included, delivered as a high-res image. 4 days, one revision. What I won't do: invent a place, or promise a likeness I can't keep. If street view can't reach it, I say so and you pay nothing.
