One hour away from Kanazawa. to a world herritage GOKAYAMA!
It's not very far to go to Gokayama from Kanazawa, There are some spaces between the houses (Dispersed settlement) in Tonami Plain. There is a place to see this view.

!!!
There are many water mills in Johana. This is the park of Johana water mill. It means that it has a lot of water around here.
We are going into more mountains. There is Tairamura after a tunnel. You should rely on taxi to come here in winter because it has a lot of snow. Our destination is Ainokura Gassyozukuri village.
Because some people live there, pay respect to them, please.
From Ainokura village to Kaminashi area.
You can see Murakamike. It's one of the Nationally designated important cultural property buildings.
Walk on the hallway which is too cold to walk with bare foot.
You can see not only farm tools and documents of folk customs but also know the history and some folk songs.
Just seeing the firewood makes you warm...
The sign says a sidewalk of folk song. If you push the button, you can hear one of the folk song, Kokirikobushi! Let's push it and have a nice walk!
Suganuma Gassyozukuri area!
This Iwakurake is the biggest gassyozukuri house.
The rice field and these houses... wow look so good.
Cool souvenirs. What will you choose?
You would be happy with this peaceful view.
There is a surprising view in this peaceful place. People needed to cross the river like this back in the days. It's called Kagono Watashi.
Gokayama's taste. The driver suggested me to eat this good soba and tofu.You can see Syogawa river through the window.
On the way to town. It's Syogawa sightseeing boat. The ancient people who was using Kagono Watashi might get surprised to have such a convinient transportation now... It's a good trip were you could learn about the history.
