Nikko Edomura located in Nikko city, Tochigi, is a theme park where you can enjoy a life in the Edo period. Once you step inside this theme park, you will discover the vivid life of the Edo period.

The procession of courtesans promoted in this video is especially popular, and it is an event that teaches the audience about Yoshiwara in the Edo period. What Is an "Oiran" An oiran was a courtesan in the Yoshiwara red-light distinct in the Edo period. A high class courtesan is called "tayu." The Yoshiwara red-light district was located around Nihonbashi Bridge in Tokyo and it was one of the most gorgeous areas in the Edo period. When a tayu moved from a hikitejaya (teahouse) to Yoshiwara, she wore a gorgeous kimono, black painted sandals called "Sanmaiba-geta," and took many underlings wearing "Furisode," a full dress for unmarried women. You can see the procession of courtesans in this video. Also, the journey from Shimabara, Kyoto to Shinmachi, Osaka was called "Tayu Dochu." This journey was what all women in the Edo period longed for. The oiran strolling through the street in their black sandals must have been an amazing site at the time. You can see them walking in the video at 1:13. It's said that it took at least three years to learn to walk properly, as the walking style of an oiran is very particular. You can see what the procession of courtesans, conducted in the Edo period, looks like at Nikko Edomura. This role was performed by Miyuki Shinomiya for a long time.

Other live shows such as ninja plays or water using plays attracts the attention of children. Another attraction called "Jiku" where a visitor can cosplay as a Ninja, Samurai, Lord, or Teenage girl of the merchant class is also popular. We recommend buying Nyan mage goods as a souvenir.
