Vivienda tradicional. Me ha encantado entrar. 400 yenes entrar para mi merece la pena
Un paseo relajante en un pueblo original y diferente. Imprescindible visita.
Es una visita a una casa antigua, ni mas ni menos, cumple lo que promete. Nada especimente señalable, pero si no hay mucha gente merece la pena echar un vistazo a las herramientas antiguas y aperos de labranza.
