GEISHA or MAIKO by the roadside beside ....
... spotting a real geisha in Japan is not very common and when I took this photo I had been walking around Gion for a few hours hoping to catch a glimpse of one. If you are hoping to see a real geisha, the most important thing you need is patience and other other is to go to Gion. There are not many icons of Japan that are more famous than cherry blossoms, but one of them is a geisha. While geisha were once as common as convenient stores are now in Japan, the number of real geisha are slowly dwindling away. Actually seeing a real geisha or maiko (a geisha in training) is a very rare experience. While you used to be able to see geisha all over Japan, now, almost all of the geisha left in Japan are in Kyoto (Gion District), which is where I took this picture of a geisha walking down a side street trying to avoid crowds. ....beautiful |
