Geisha districts, known as hanamachi, are traditional areas in Japan where geisha and maiko (apprentice geisha) live and work. These districts are characterized by wooden teahouses, narrow streets, and a rich cultural atmosphere. Visitors can experience performances of traditional music, dance, and games, showcasing the skills of these entertainers. In cities like Kyoto, the most famous geisha district is Gion, where many geisha have trained for centuries. The districts are not only places for entertainment but also serve as cultural hubs, preserving the art and traditions of Japanese hospitality and performance.
