Japan : Beautiful Samurai
芸妓 君香さん
The geiko (geisha) Kimika plays the 12th century samurai warrior Tomoe Gozen in the Jidai Matsuri, one of the three big festivals of Kyoto, Japan.
Over 2,000 people, including many geiko (geisha) and maiko (apprentice geisha), wore costumes representing various eras of Kyoto's 1,200-year history as they paraded through the city.
Kyoto was the capital of Japan from 794 until 1868. It is now the seventh largest city in Japan.
