  • Thank you for uproading this video, I feel at home... nice memories. Many corrections to young commenters ; This place called "Hakusasonso (白沙村荘)" a madam in this film is the wife of son of Kansetsu Hashimoto; a great japanese painting artist and creator of this garden. there are nothing about the world of Geisha here, but the world of a cup of tea, zen. She says in this film, "I don't care the little things, I'm fine if they simply drink my tea" , the real heart of the TEA.

  • it is nice to catch a glimpse of the secret world of giesha and their customs...even though in modern times...they still have their mysteries.

  • The japanese tea room is really a peaceful place. It lets you to medidate your spirit ......away from the vexations of the outside world.

  • @zakipad If an antique lacquer furniture costs about one and half million yen in a Japanese Central Market Mall, then how much that would be???

  • and how much USD would a house like this cost?

  • The house is NOT called Hakusanso but

    Hakusa-Sanso (白沙山荘).

    The main pavilion is the ancient atelier of Hasimoto Kansetu (橋本関雪), painter.

  • What a peacefully and gracefully place!

  • Little hidden huts where people are served tea by geisha in beautiful sttings. What is better, I ask?!

  • Truly spectacular, its always nice to see videos of the samurai capital of Japan.
