Gion Corner

Gion Corner

Another option is to go to Gion Corner, where you can see a display of seven of Kyoto’s traditional performing arts, including tea ceremony and a dance by two maiko.

This will give you just a tiny taste of what you would see at one of the annual dances, but it’s the best option for seeing geiko perform other than at the annual shows.

Performances are at 6pm and 7pm every day. Gion Corner is in the Yasaka Hall, right next to the Gion Kobu Kaburenjo Theatre where the Miyako Odori are held.
