On this night tour of Gion, we will explore Kyoto's historic geisha district as night falls.

Description

We will meet at the corner of Kawaramachi Garden, in front of the big clock, to begin our night tour of Gion. This unique area features traditional Japanese lanterns, and we will learn about their inscriptions and the local culture.

Our walk will take us through both the busy and hidden streets, including the preserved Hanamikoji Street. The traditional wooden houses will be highlighted by dim lights, and we will pass by significant sites like Yasaka Shrine.

During the tour, we may encounter maiko or geikos, apprentice geishas, as we appreciate the details of their clothing.

We will conclude our night tour at Sanj? ?hashi Bridge after 3 hours.
