Geisha is one prestigious element you can’t miss when speaking about Japan’s traditional culture. We also have geishas here in Morioka.

They handle a hectic schedule during the year-end and the New Year’s season – today, we’re here for an interview with them.

The restaurant we were at, is a high-end restaurant that serves traditional Japanese food at its finest, and it has been said that the most sophisticated participate in the ozashiki asobi (games played with geishas).

The seating has got an expensive touch to it, the plates are beautiful and the food is absolutely delectable; that paired with the “omotenashi” by the geishas? What a lively and elegant world we’ve walked in on.

盛岡の芸者

日本の誇る伝統文化・芸者。私たちの住む盛岡市にも芸者がいる。

年末年始、彼女たちは活躍の場が多く、大忙しだ。今日は、彼女たちの取材。

日本では、本格的な日本料理が食べられる料亭で、芸者たちとお座敷遊びをするのは、上品な大人のたしなみと言われている。高級な座敷で、美しい器に、贅沢極まりない料理、そして芸者たちの“おもてなし”。

雅で、粋な世界である。
