The village of the straw-thatched houses in Miyama,Kyoto 京都の美山[わらぶきの里:WARABUKInoSATO]

KONNICHIWA!こんにちわ。

I went to Kyoto again last month. I went to the mountain this time.
Kyoto is large unexpectedly.
The town of Kyoto has many temples or Shinto shrines,and it is a famous sightseeing spot. Furthermore, the suburbs of Kyoto have rich nature.
Miyama cultivates soba蕎麦、そば. When flowers of the soba are in full bloom, many people come for sightseeing.

Traditional straw-thatched houses are left, and the people still live there.
We can see nostalgic scenery that appears in an old story of Japan.
It is scenery in the age when our parents and ancestor lived.However, it make us nostalgic feel ing. I like there.



Dragonflies, and butterflies, frogs, I saw a snake,too. The road changed to asphalt, but many insects appeared on the roadside,now.






An old house and the pair of the car were lovely.



A thing of this red is a mailbox. It is old form.
I can rarely look now if I go to the country or downtown.

hello.Thank you.
Is it a question on the meaning that because people is'nt reflected,where were they ?


Originally it is a small village.
I think that they works in the daytime in the fields.

I put several pieces photos which sightseeing people is taken...
It is not a very famous sightseeing spot and not crowded than the city.
And I take a photo it so that peoples does not come out.
