Hanafusa Okiya is a new established Okiya who wish to provide authentic and strict education for those who wish to have a very authentic geiko life in sl.
Miyagawacho Hanamachi is centered around the life of the Kagai the flower and willow world but what not so many know is that there are many who take part in the daily life of the Kagai, not just Geiko.
With it's tiny alleyways and Machiya giving a homely feel and a sense of being there, to the serene gardens creating a relaxing atmosphere, Miyagawa-cho has it all for the Sl role player who wishes to submerge themselves in the Flower World culture.
Miyagawa-cho currently has two Okiya. One is vacant awaiting a new Okaasan, the other is the recreation of the famous Hanafusa Okiya owned and run by Okaasan Geiko Kikuyu.Along with her 3 Shikomi she is building an Okiya which holds true to the traditional values of Geisha (Geiko) as opposed to the common media fuelled belief of Geiko as being call girls.
As the Shikomi grow and learn and mature into beautiful Maiko and onwards to Geiko, so will this new Hanamachi. What better time to set up your home and business here than now. Watch the town develop around you, be a part of it's growth and become family. SLurl
