A Place to go
| Shirakawago |
|
Shirakawago, a secluded mountain village registered  as a United Nations World Heritage site in 1995, retains a historic atmosphere with some 150 traditional thatched roof farmhouses dotted throughout the valley. The gassho-zukuri thatched roof houses are typically 18 metres long and 10 metres wide. There are four stories inside the huge buildings so that a large number of family members can live together. To withstand the weight of the heavy snowfall experienced in the area in winter, the angle of the roof is sharp, making the roof line look like two hands clasped in prayer, a gesture called gassho in Japanese. The gassho-zukuri style roofs are re-thatched once every 40–50 years and even today three or four roofs are re-thatched each year with the cooperation of the whole village.
A direct bus service operates from Takayama Station to Shirakawago three times daily. |
