A rare encounter with Maiko sans

Me and a Geisha at the Atami station. It is indeed a very tough sight unless you are in Kyot to meet a Geisha. Maiko sans were kind enough to agree for a snap with her and this is one of th most special experiences in Japan. Very authentic and deeprooted cultural aspect of this nation. I was on my way back form the camping at Oshima on a hot summer day!
To read more on Geishas and their cultural influience and the true identity, Pleae check out the Suggested reading 'Meomirs of a Geisha' or watch the Movie. Lot of the wrong prenotions would be shockingly one and it will helpt to understand their importance and worth in this eartern ortodox culture of the Japanese Island.
