Miyama Gassho Village (Kyoto Prefecture)

Different from Gassho Village in Shirakawa-go, Miyama Gassho Village in Kyoto Prefecture is a mini paradise but far away from the crowds. Miyama Gassho Village is located in a valley of more than 800 meters, about 1.5 hours from Kyoto and 2 hours from Osaka. After arriving in Miyama Town, I immediately felt that the air was fresh and the village had a unique Japanese rural simplicity. There are about 50 buildings in the entire village, including nearly 40 thatched houses. Different from the commercial feel of Shirakawa Township, the complete Japanese scenery is preserved here, and the entire trip can be completed in about one hour. Travelers who like to walk in the countryside may wish to take a walk here to experience a different feeling. #美川 #Gasho Village
