Visit to Japan to visit the ancient village of Shirakawago, where the Doraemon series was born
The ancient village Shirakawago is located at the foot of Mount Hakusan, Gifu Prefecture, central Japan. The village is special because of the rows of wooden houses, bearing gassho-zukuri architecture. The special feature of this village is the wooden houses of gassho-zukuri architecture with a sloping roof that is covered with thatched grass like praying hands

. Besides the majestic surrounding nature, the history of the village is what makes all the difference. Although the village was established about 300 years ago, the houses are still preserved.
Currently, the ancient village of Shirakawago has about 100 houses In which, more than 20 old wooden houses are carefully preserved, maintaining the status quo as in the early days.



The four seasons in the ancient village of Shirakawago were beautiful. In winter, heavy snow covered the whole village, creating a wonderful picture like a fairy tale page. To cope with heavy snowfall, the roofs in Shirakawago village were covered with straw up to 50 cm thick. Doraemon comic books associated with childhood for generations were first written by Fujiko F. Fujio in this famous old Japanese village.
Shirakawago village is beautiful every season, but I love the snow scenery covered with thatched roofs in winter, so I have to visit the village by wearing difficult weather conditions for tourists from the tropics. Snow in this area usually falls from mid-December and ends in late February next year However, visitors who intend to visit the village, watch the snow should update the weather regularly because it does not snow every year at the right time.




It only takes about four hours to travel from Kyoto to Shirakawago village. If you have time, you should stay in the village one day and one night to attend the lighting festival that usually takes place in the evening. However, the village of Shirakawago limits the number of people who visit and attend the ceremony to preserve the heritage. So, to fully experience the cultural value of the village, it is more convenient to go on a tour. Winter in Japan is very cold. Snow was falling heavily. Guests should prepare warm clothes and waterproof gear for a smooth ride. In addition, you should also enjoy Japanese cuisine in small village eateries for 1,000 yen (9 USD) or more per dish.
