【VIP】Geisha Dance ＆ Tea ceremony experence with Yukata
A valuable experience that can only be had in Japan. It's a waste to end up wearing a yukata! Wearing a yukata and bowing and walking, let's feel Japan in the era when there were samurai. Once you get used to wearing a yukata, use a fan to dance to the representative Japanese song "Sakura Sakura".
