GEISHA District in Kyoto | Japan Walking Tour #kyoto #walking tour [Video]

Gion is a charming district located in Higashiyama Ward, renowned for its preserved traditional architecture and geisha culture. Geishas, also known as geiko in Kyoto, are traditional Japanese female entertainers trained in music, dance, and conversation. Gion is also home to many ochaya, traditional Japanese tea houses where geishas entertain their guests. We suggest booking a tea ceremony called the Way of Tea. This traditional ritual involves preparing and serving matcha-powdered green tea and enjoying traditional Japanese sweets and snacks such as wagashi.
