🪵THE THATCHED VILLAGE🛖
vegetables hung to dry
at two houses...
thatch dripping rain
二軒前干菜かけたり草の雨
-Issa (小林一茶), 1803.

🪵THE THATCHED VILLAGE🛖
About an hour's drive north west of Kyōto, Miyama's (美山) 'Kayabuki-no-sato' (かやぶきの里) is a small village of traditional farmhouses.
Known after their thatched roofs, 'kayabuki' (茅葺) farmhouses are increasingly a rare sight nowadays.
Kayabuki-no-sato (かやぶきの里) has the highest concentration of traditional farmhouses in Japan, and most of the 40 properties remain as private homes.
