Royal family can't make up their mind as to follow Japanese traditional or Western style clothes. Keep mixing and blending every outing. Like a horse drown carriage and kimono or visit a Shrine wearing a Penguin suit.

Despite common misconceptions, geishas are not prostitutes, but rather entertainers and raconteurs
Who are you trying to kid? That is exactly what they were and in fact veeeery expensive prostitutes at that, throughout Japans history. It is only recently that their history has been whitewashed to make it look presentable!
Secondly, I would like to see how they are going to stop those mannerless Chinese or Korean tourists from entering those private alleys!

Tourists come to Japan and spend their money in shops and other places. In turn those shops pay taxes. Now they want to directly tax tourists because there are too many of them! So what they are saying is that if you come to Osaka, we will tax you for it! I have never heard of anything more stupid in my life!!!!! I will make sure to tell everyone I know and in every site that I use to not go to Osaka!
