The highlight of our Japan trip was dinning with Maiko( trainee geishas). Maiko are young Japanese girls who are highly trained in Japanese art, culture and traditions. In olden days, Maiko would only serve green tea but gradually they began performing music, songs and dances for the customers only at high-class Japanese restaurants. Initially Maiko’s were to be seen all around in Japan but now only a few thousands are to be found in Kyoto. Since we were visiting Kyoto, our friend Itagakisan suggested we must experience this tradition of Japan. I wasn’t sure in the beginning if I will enjoy it, but surprisingly I thoroughly enjoyed the night.
