Geisha
Geisha ( 芸者 "person of the arts") are traditional Japanese.
Geisha were very common in the 18th and 19th centuries, and are still in existence today, although their numbers are dwindling. "
The first geisha were all male; as women began to take the role they were known as onna geisha ( 女芸者 ), or "woman artist (female form)." Geisha today are exclusively female, aside from the Taikomochi.

SAMURAI
Samurai ( 侍 or sometimes 士 ) is a common term for a
warrior in pre-industrial Japan. A more appropriate term is bushi ( 武士 ) (lit. "war-man") .
Samurai were expected to be cultured and literate, and over time, samurai during the Tokugawa era gradually lost their military function.
The strict code that they followed, called bushido, still survives in present-day Japanese society, as do many other aspects of their way of life.

IKEBANA
Ikebana (Japanese: 生け花 or いけばな , literally "living flowers") is the Japanese art of flower arrangement, also known as kadō ( 華道 )�the "way of flowers".
Ikebana began as a kind of ritual flower offering made in Buddhist temples in Japan during the sixth century. In these arrangements, both the flowers and the branches were made to point toward heaven as an indication of faith.
The rikka style became popular in the seventeenth century, used as a decorative technique for ceremonial and festive occasions, though today it is regarded as an antiquated form of flower arrangement and is rarely practiced.

The Japanese tea ceremony (cha-no-yu, chado, or sado) is a traditional ritual influenced by Zen Buddhism in which powdered green tea, or matcha ( 抹茶 ), is ceremonially prepared by a skilled practitioner and served to a small group of guests in a tranquil setting.
Tea Ceremony
Since a tea practitioner must be familiar with the production and types of tea, with kimono, calligraphy, flower arranging, ceramics, incense and a wide range of other disciplines and traditional arts in addition to his or her school's tea practices.

The Shinto wedding is performed before a Shinto sanctuary. Many hotels and restaurants are equipped with a special room for wedding ceremonies.
A wedding is usually attended by members of both families, close relatives and the go-betweens.
San-san-kudo," a ceremony of three-times-three exchange of nuptial cups, is performed by the bridegroom and bride. Drinks of "Sake" are then exchanged between members and close relatives of the both families to signify their union through the wedding.

Japanese castles were frequently constructed in strategic locations to protect important transport routes such as bridges, rivers or ports.
Other Japanese castles were built to dominate a landscape and provide a final point of defence. Many Japanese castles were the basis for the development of cities, while others were located in difficult to reach mountain tops
Japanese castles really came of age in the 14th century, reaching their peak in 17th century and by the late 19th century most were being disassembled as part of the Meiji Restoration.

Japanese Temples are Buddhist Temples located in Japan.
There are some very old Japanese Temple which were established over 1,200 years ago.
Today some of these very old wooden temple buildings still survive, however many have been destroyed by lightning, fire, earthquakes, storms or war and have been rebuilt over the years.
Japanese Temples or Buddhist Temples are not primarily places of worship like a Christian church or Muslim mosque, primary purpose of the Japanese Temple is the storage and sometimes display of sacred objects. Buddhists will then come to pray in front of or near these sacred objects.
