Japan is a fascinating country and one of its most amazing cities is Kyoto. Just over 300 miles from Tokyo, it grabs your heart with its beauty and culture. If in Kyoto, take a moment to visit the Gion district… filled with shops, restaurants, tea houses, ‘geiko’ (Kyoto dialect for geisha) and ‘maiko’ (geisha apprentices)… This colorful part of the city will take you back to a moment in time in history. Take a walk, have a bite to eat and meet the geishas 🙂
