Shirakawa*** and Gokayama***

Shirakawa-go is a village in the Gifu Prefecture that is best known for its traditional gassho-zukuri farmhouses. These farmhouses are characterized by their steeply pitched thatched roofs, which are designed to withstand the heavy snowfall that the region receives in the winter. These farmhouses are over 250 years old and are still used as homes and businesses by the village residents. The gassho-zukuri farmhouses are also unique in that they are built without nails, using a traditional Japanese woodworking technique called mortise and tenon.

Shirakawa-go was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995, and it is now one of the most popular tourist destinations in Japan. Visitors can tour the gassho-zukuri farmhouses, learn about the traditional way of life in the village, and enjoy the stunning natural scenery.
