Quick Glance: Protecting Geishas: Tourist Ban in Kyoto
- To protect the globally recognized Japanese women artists, local officials in the Geisha district of Kyoto will shut off access for tourists who harass starting April.
- The historic Gion district will now ban sightseers and tourists from the alleys and streets housing Geishas and Maikos due to complaints about growing photography disturbances.
- Next month, the alleys hosting restaurants and teahouses will be exclusively open for Geishas, their clients, and district residents.
- This measure aims to safeguard not only the Geishas and Maikos but also preserve the Japanese art and its custodian artists.
