Morning in Gion Shirakawa and Tatsuhime Shrine 🌿

The exact spot where the geisha and maiko (apprentice geisha) house chef serves the real-life version of the meal. 🌟🌸 It's the place where little Sumire and Kiyoko first saw the maiko sisters and were filled with longing, and also where they eventually chose different paths. I prayed at the shrine for the maiko and geisha I admire to have exquisite skills, and then something strange happened... 🌟🌸 Maybe I stayed too long (because there were just too many people I liked!), and when I turned around, a crowd had gathered to watch me, as if my comic had come to life. I was just in ordinary clothes, and I was surrounded—imagine how much more attention the maiko and geisha would get! 🌇 🌊🎢 #Geisha 🌿 #Maiko 🌿 #MaikoHouseChef 🌿
