Bunsui Geisha Parade

つばめ桜まつり 分水おいらん道中

The Shinano River in Okozu, near Bunsui in Niigata prefecture, is a popular destination in spring for its beautiful pink cherry blossom trees. The Bunsui Oiran Dochu Parade takes place here in April, featuring three courtesans in Edo-period costumes, accompanied by 70 followers, parading gracefully among the cherry blossom trees. The festival offers a unique opportunity to travel back in time and witness the beauty of blooming cherry trees and the grandeur of the courtesan procession.
