On the 15th I went on a guided walking tour of Gion with a lovely girl from the Hostel. She showed us some of the wonderful old streets of Gion, the 'Geisha District' (In Kyoto they refer to the traditional performers as Geiko, rather than Geisha though)
*Filling up the daily shrine/temple quota*
*Our friendly guide explaining that the characters above the doors list the names of the Maiko (apprentice) and Geiko.
*Some ladies in Kimono*
