What is based on flowers?
The scene of the elected chief executive going to the appointment with the guests is huge and looks like a parade.

In the Edo era, every tour (J-yard) had a female tourist (J-girl) with the highest level, called "Huakui". They not only wear extremely complicated ornaments and tie kimono belts in front, but also are good at playing chess, painting and calligraphy, and reciting poems. The place where you met Huakui is called "Wu Yang", and the road to Wu Yang is called "the middle section of Huakui Road".

It is quite rich in ostentation and extravagance. The chieftain wore a gorgeous kimono of at least 20kg, wore a high bun tied with hawksbill, and walked slowly through the flower street with a footwork called "Waibawen", surrounded by many servants, and was baptized by the envious eyes of all tourists.

Extended data

The name "flower-based" comes from China, which originally meant "the head of a hundred flowers", mostly referring to peony or plum blossom, but in Japan, flower-based has a specific meaning, referring to the number one girl in the Edo era. And this number plate is not to be beautiful, but to be sold to the daughter of a declining aristocrat in a brothel or the best woman elected by the people.

Today's "Huakui Daozhong" is preserved because of the rich folk characteristics of the Edo era. At the beginning of April every year, the famous flower street "Edo Yoshihara" (now located in the back street of Asakusa, Tokyo) will also hold "Huakui Road Middle", attracting many citizens and tourists to watch it.
