【Fun Facts】
Once there were many geisha districts in Tokyo, but there are only 6 left now. One of them is Asakusa. Among those it is said that the charm of Asakusa's geisha is that they have a kind of friendliness full of human warmth with a traditional atmosphere that you can find in the geisha district in Asakusa. There are two types of geisha roles. One is a 'tachikata' specialized in dancing and to other one is a 'jikata' performing songs and the shamisen. They will form a pair and will liven up the atmosphere. Asakusa is known for having male geisha called 'hokan.'
【Nearby area introduction】
On the north side of the Senso-ji Temple, there is an area called 'Kannon-ura'. Traditional Japanese restaurants, geisha houses and geisha call-office can all be found here and you can feel the historical atmosphere of a geisha district. There is much less traffic compared to Senso-ji and the Nakamise Street where it is always crowded with visitors, so in the Kannon-ura area you can experience the calm atmosphere of the geisha district.
