Shirakawa Town Gassho Village
Shirakawa-go’s gassho-zukuri farmhouses (steep thatched roofs) form a fairytale village in the Kiso Valley. Best photos come with low morning mist or fresh snowfall, when the roofs glow softly and the wooden lanes create leading lines. Go early for quiet interiors/exteriors.
