Description

白川郷、岐阜県
Shirakawago, Gifu, Japan

A view through the window of one of the houses.
This whole village is a World Heritage Site.

It's famous for the unique houses designed to outstand snow. About 30 people used to live in these houses and some of them are open to the public.

I believe some manga like Higurashino Naku Koroni was inspired by these villages.
