Toyama,continued, thatched roof village

After we explored the woodcarver’s town and temple, we were driven to this very old farming village with very steep pitched roofs made out of thick thatch. The drive there was up challenging mountain roads past a ski area and it was easy to see why this village required the steep roofs to shed the snow load all winter. While we were walking around we were treated to the sight of large eggplants on the vine ready to harvest and other crops in fields , all in small flat spots, on their mountainside.Okumaya devam et
