What comes to mind when you hear the phrase "unprecedented hit"?
There are many titles such as "that delicious dish from that restaurant", "a movie with a box office revenue of XX billion yen", "a work that won the 2018 Booksellers Award", and "that photo book that's all the rage right now", but of course, what caught our attention at GION AYA was the "photo book of a real professional maiko" v(^^)v Its name is
"Maiko Tsurezure: The Changing Life of a Geisha (by Katsuhiro Miyauchi)"
Nowadays, there are more and more opportunities to see professional Geisha and maiko on social media, but a photo book still feels special!!
Hello, everyone!! How have you been recently? I'm YUKIKO. I'm doing good well!!
Today I will introduce my best photo collection.
[Maiko Tsuredure Transitory Story
(Katsuhiro Miyauchi Collection)]
Photo collection with real Maiko on it.
Have you seen Geisha and Maiko at SNS? Photo collection is special☆☆☆
↑The size is good and the photos are large so you can see even the smallest details (^-^)/
↑Almost the size of a magazine.
Here's just a little glimpse into what's inside:
There is something that we want to show you!! Yeaaaaah!!!
There are also many features of retired Geisha and Maiko who have become geiko.
Very famous maiko and geisha are on it.
It's not just a beautiful book with poses and angles of the body and face that we want to use as reference, but also a teaching material for us staff.
This photo collection will be our textbook. Because it shows a wonderful pose and makeup.☆
A simple yet impressive book!!
Simple is best!!
There are photos like this that you don't normally see, as well as photos of maiko without makeup!!
She looks young without makeup, and there's definitely a huge gap between that and her white makeup look (>m<)//

I have posted a photo of Inuyari, but I am not going to write in detail about Inuyari, a typical Kyoto landscape, in this blog... but I will write a little bit! So what is the main topic? The hint is within 1,000 yen.
Speaking of summer in Kyoto, the Gion Festival is a seasonal event that takes place in a grand manner. But what exactly is the Gion Festival? I didn't really know much about it, so I googled it.
I went to the Setsubun Festival in Gion again this year in 2020. I was so moved by the appearance of the maiko HAaaan♡, who is a fan of Kanda♡(^^)/
