[Arts and Culture Lecture] Gion Hanamachi Art Museum "The Beauty of the Gorgeous Maiko and the Arts and Culture of Gion"
Gion Kobu in Kyoto has a history of several hundred years. The special existence of "geiko" and "maiko" is made up of the best of Kyoto's various traditional crafts and traditional performing arts. Preserving the unchanged Hanamachi culture since ancient times leads to the passing on of precious traditional techniques. Geiko and maiko are also communication professionals. Their beauty comes not only from their appearance but also from within. Experience the quintessence of the Japanese culture that Kyoto is proud of around the world by experiencing the carefully passed down craftsmanship and the spirituality of geiko and maiko who cherish every single gesture and etiquette.SDGs area of this content

The CO2 Zero Travel Plan® is a plan that uses the J-Credit Scheme to offset (carbon offset) the CO2 emissions you make while traveling. By purchasing the value of green electricity, you can essentially reduce the CO2 emissions you make while traveling to zero. CO2 emissions are now a major global issue, as can be seen from the efforts toward the SDGs set by the United Nations. This program was born from the desire to "leave as much of the Earth as possible beautiful for our future children." In order to take concrete action against climate change... As a first step, why not start taking concrete action against "climate change" while traveling?SDGs area of this content
