This is a very small village in Hakuba, and unfortunately there is no public transport to get there.
After driving up the mountain for about 20 minutes from Hakuba-station, you will come to an amazing view
with 14 large traditional Japanese houses and 7 warehouses, that were build during the Edo period (1603-1868) and the Meiji period (1868-1912).
This village is stated to be Japan’s important preservation district of historic buildings.
It keeps it traditional atmosphere, has not been turned into a tourist spot.
You will be able to enjoy the primitive relaxing walk here just like the olden times.
It is also famous for their beautiful terraced rice-fields.
