When you mention Japan, you may think of Mount Fuji, kimono and cherry blossoms. These are all superficial. Japan also has geisha culture, sumo culture and some excellent traditional handicrafts. These can better represent the Japanese concept and lifestyle.

Japanese geisha originated in the17th century, when geisha were mostly male. It was in the18th century that the geisha industry was gradually replaced by women.

As a geisha, the conditions are harsh, the tuition is high and the courses are hard. Not everyone can insist, so there are not many geisha.
