An excellent way to get a crash course into the local history and Geisha’s culture, this theater is one of the touristy things to do in this region. Book in advance as these shows are very popular and tend to get sold out. The one hour show is all about showcasing all seven forms of Kyoto's professional performing arts - classical comedy, dance, music of the imperial court, harp, puppet theater, flower arrangement, and a sneak peak into the tea ceremony. You could choose to pay and attend an authentic and elaborate tea ceremony immediately after the show. The explanations of the performances are given in English. #history #gallery #architecture #art #snack
