I am going to speak about Culture. I would like to start with the definition of culture. Culture is the characteristics of a particular group of people. Now I would like to tell you about Culture of Asia. Traditional asian religion is Buddhism. Buddhism was established in India about 2500 years ago. Buddhism is a religion based on the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama. He came to be called „the Buddha,“ which means „awakened one. a major role in Asian culture plays Tea – whether it’s in China, India or Malaysia – tea ceremonies, are a major part of most Asian cultures.
One of the typical things is Origami: Origami is the art of folding paper.
But i am the most interested in Geisha.
Geisha are professional entertainers who attend guests during meals, banquets and other occasions. They are trained in various traditional Japanese arts, such as dance and music, as well as in the art of communication.
Geisha can be found in several cities across Japan, including Tokyo and Kanazawa, but Kyoto is the most prestigious place to experience geisha, who are known in the local dialect as geiko
The term geisha literally translates to mean „entertainer“. Some prostitutes refer to themselves as „geisha“, but they are not. A geisha’s sex and love life is usually distinct from her professional life. A successful geisha can entrance her male customers with music, dance, and conversation.
Modern geisha still live in traditional geisha houses called okiya in areas called hanamachi They wear kimono. The traditional makeup of is white base with red lipstick and red and black accents around the eyes.So, i am convinced that Geiko are the most interesting form of Japaneese art.
