To all of my friends who will be traveling to Japan this year or in the future, the Kyoto government will be banning tourists from entering the Gion district starting April 2024. This is due to the ongoing harassment and disrespect of many Geisha and other locals, as well as, disrespecting the culture and temples.
Not sure how long the ban will be but just keep that in mind for future reference.
