Finding Geisha and Living Culture in Kyoto

From shrines and tea traditions to historic streets, we explore living culture in Kyoto—with rare glimpses of geisha along the way.

It’s our second day in Japan’s historic city of Kyoto and we’re about to pack five thousand years’ worth of authentic sites and bites into just a few hours. From samurai tea to shinto shrines. From alleyway foods to dancing geisha. And all from our home base at the Four Seasons Kyoto.
