The place I want to go to is Shirakawa-go. A village in Gifu Prefecture that is also registered as a World Heritage Site. The thatched roofs of Gassho-zukuri style buildings need to be replaced once every 20 to 30 years, and the whole village is working together to do this. This spirit of helping each other is called “Yui” and is cherished. I want to see snowy and illuminated scenery en real not just photos.
