First, we’ll explore the exclusive Geisha enclave of Yanagibashi. Unlike the bustling pleasure districts, this area was a sanctuary for 'Iki'—the sophisticated, high-class Geisha culture of Edo. We’ll cycle toward the Sumida River, the historic water gateway that once welcomed poets and aristocrats to this elegant riverside world.
