Shirakawa-go! Since this fairy-tale-like little village became famous, it has always been so crowded! So I started shifting my attention to nearby Suganuma.
Although it is a World Heritage Site, the villagers still live a simple life here, which is exactly what makes Suganuma so appealing. Come quietly and stroll around quietly, and be sure not to disturb the villagers’ lives. It is at its quietest and most appealing in winter, when everything is blanketed in white snow!

The unique wooden houses covered in snow, with lights shining on the snowy ground, look just like something out of a fairy tale. It feels so warm and romantic—totally worth seeing!
