The appearance of the Ochaya surely gives the impression that it is hard to enter without being escorted by someone else already familiar with the place. This area is a well preserved district of Kyoto that has a unique charming character. It’s like stepping into another world!
Check out the wonderful atmosphere of the Japanese-style room and furnishings.
Enjoy the open bar (all-you-can-drink)!
So cute! You might wonder what to talk about. But it’ll be fun chatting about general topics or simply asking about the Maiko lifestyle. They will be very friendly, so you’ll find that it’ll be easy to break the ice. You will get to know some interesting differences between Maiko and Geiko.
You’ll find the Maikos’ smile and friendly vibe complement her professionalism. You will love the beautiful and delicate movements of the Maiko. Feel free to take pictures with your cameras. After the Mai performance you can ask questions about her songs and dancing, which may make you want to watch her other performances.
This part is about “playing game at your Ozashiki-reserved room at the Ochaya”. It is hard to imagine what it would be from the name, but such an elaborate experience will make you think that it is more than just a “game”. There are some fun penalties if you lose games!
Take an extravagant photo surrounded by Geiko and Maiko. Keep it for your memories.
