Higashi Geisha District

The Higashi Geisha District (Eastern Geisha District) is the larger and more spectacular of the two districts in Kanazawa. There you might be able to spot a geisha (even though we didn't) and tour a former geisha house which is open to the public. Looking down the street, you wouldn't think anything was open but there were tons of little stores and tea places right inside. Even though it's only one street, I'm glad we ventured out to find it!
