*''Japanese'': 一力 ''(ichiriki)''
The Ichiriki Chaya is a [[teahouse]] in the [[Gion]] district of [[Kyoto]] which dates back to the 17th century. It is located at the corner of Shijô-dôri and Hanami-kôji.
It is famous in particular for its appearance in the [[kabuki]] play [[Kanadehon Chushingura|Kanadehon Chûshingura]]; [[Oishi Kuranosuke|Ôishi Kuranosuke]], one of the [[47 Ronin]], is said to have stayed there for a time. The teahouse also featured prominently in the film "Memoirs of a Geisha," but despite the fame and popularity of that book, and film, it is said that Ichiriki is so exclusive (as most [[geisha]] houses are) that Arthur Golden, author of the book, was never able to get in.
