Make your way to the Kanazawa Asanogawa Enyukai Hall, just a short walk from the Asanogawa Ohashi Bridge.
Learn about the geiko (geisha) of Kanazawa from the panel displays.
The museum features a renovated kura storehouse, which is home to a diorama of the Higashi Chaya District. It looks just like the real thing!
Enjoy the magical feel of a flute performance in a dimly lit room.
(Actual performances may vary.)
Experience the beauty of traditional geiko dancing performed to shamisen music.
Enjoy conversation and drinks with a Kanazawa geiko entertainer, alongside food from a high-end restaurant, in an environment just like a real chaya venue — the highlight of a meal like this is the fun social back-and-forth with the geiko.
The prestigious restaurant Otomoro has served traditional Kaga cuisine since 1830. Today, their premium Japanese-style meals are available as bento boxed meals, both at stations and for these events.
(Drinks are provided, but in limited quantities — not an all-you-can-drink plan.)
Ozashiki parties also involve games like Tora-tora. Players stand on opposite sides of a wall and pose in time with music. They can choose from three poses, much like rock-paper-scissors.
(Actual games may vary.)
Konpira Funefune is another popular ozashiki game. Players need to keep up with the music as it gradually gets faster and faster.
(Actual games may vary.)
The party ends with photos together with the geiko. Say cheese!
