Oiran Girls Bar Tsukinohana

An Oiran is a high-ranked prostitute of Yoshihara Yukaku. The term is not the same as a prostitute now of course, but is more like a Geisha. An Oiran needs to be educated, to have thoroughly studied culture such as classical theatre, calligraphy, tea ceremony, Japanese poetry, koto, shamisen, igo and so on. In addition to solidly cultivating internal beauty, outward appearance is also very important. From the Edo period, they had to wear a more complex kimono than did Geisha. These days, there are no longer any Oiran, but like a Geisha, it is common that they perform arts. Oiran Girls Bar Tsukihana is a bar with an Oiran theme. Although it is not real Oiran, it is a bar where you can enjoy the performance of kimono-wearing Oiran.

Since it is a bar with the theme of Oiran, as soon as you step in the bar, you will see a space blending traditional and contemporary Japan.
