Geiko and Maiko dressed in formal attire and said, "Congratulations!"
August 1st was the day of Hassaku, a traditional event in Hanamachi.
It is a traditional event where geisha and maiko express their gratitude to geiji masters and teahouses.
The photo is Maiko Katsura Tsuhide of Gion Kobu. Last August, the day after I went to see Daimonji-yaki, I took a picture with her at the memorial hall. She is a beautiful woman with a small and well-equipped face.
