High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Ukiyo ("Floating World") described the urban lifestyle, especially the pleasure-seeking aspects, of Edo-period Japan (1600 1867). The "Floating World" culture developed in Yoshiwara, the licensed red-light district of Edo (modern Tokyo), which was the site of many brothels, chashitsu tea houses, and kabuki theaters frequented by Japan's growing middle class. The ukiyo culture also arose in other cities such as Osaka and Kyoto. The famous Japanese woodblock prints known as ukiyo-e, or "pictures of the Floating World", depict scenes of the Floating World: geisha, kabuki actors, sumo wrestlers, samurai, ch nin and prostitutes. The term is also an ironic allusion to the homophone "Sorrowful World", the earthly plane of death and rebirth from which Buddhists sought release.
