SHELLS WORLD

Wednesday, August 23, 2006


I was taken by surprise, when I spot a Geisha after the show at Gion (Geisha District). There are very limited number of true Geishas and Maikos (apprentice Geishas) in Japan today. Even in Gion, unless you are invited to their shophouses, it is rare to see a Geisha or Maiko walking on the street. But a lot of young girls like to dress up, and there are places that will loan you the costume, as well as helping you with the make up and hair style. Anyway, I was in a hurry to take the picture, but thought it turned out nice with the dark and blurry look.
