Kaiseki Dinner with Geisha at 100 years Restaurant (Muslim friendly)

INTRO:

Takaraya, is a high-grade Japanese restaurant which has over 100 years history! It is located in Kisarazu. In this program we offer special access to a private room at this famous traditional restaurant to enjoy their kaiseki cuisine with geisha.

Geisha, Japanese traditional culture and performer, do not solely reside in Kyoto, but in a few locations in Tokyo as well.
In Kisarazu, which is only an hour away from Tokyo, there are approximately 10 geisha who are still active. The history will take you back to Edo period (1603 to 1867) when there were inter-city exchanges between Edo (former Tokyo) and Kisarazu.

Thus, Geisha culture in Kisarazu has about 200 years of history. There used to be thousands of geisha performers in the past, but as time goes by, the number has decreased to only a few hundreds who are still active in Japan. This program offers you a rare chance to actually meet with geisha face to face.
