Traveling the World #87 (Asia Series) Shirakawa-go (II) @ Japan

Hi Steemians,

Continuing from my last travel blog, we were at Shirakawa-go enjoying the nice village. Ogimachi is the largest village and the main area at Shirakawa go where these unique farm house still stand from the old days.

今天我們繼續在白川郷看看這些很特別的農舍. 荻町是在白川郷最值得去的地方也是最多保全最好的農舍就是在這裡。

Lets have a look at the map of the area

先看看地圖

Many of these farm houses have been converted to shops, restaurants, museums and home stays. We didn’t stay at a home here as there are very limited faclilties in each farm house so with kids it will be a bit difficult.

很多農舍都已經改成做商店，餐廳，博物館和旅館．我們今次沒有在其中一間旅館住因為設施非常簡單，有小朋友比較不方便。

This one is a museum

這間是博物館

There are many clear signs around the town but there are just one main road from end of town to the other side. If you are adventurous like us, do go off the main road go check out the houses on the side roads.

在白川郷，有很多路牌給遊客但我想應該不會迷路的因為中間有條主街從村口到另外一面都是從這條路走的．如果你好像我們比較大膽，你可以選擇走內街看看裏面的情況．

There is also a nice river near some of the houses

還有一條河，風景非常美

It is best to plan ahead when you come to Shirawaka go and go on a fine sunny day as most things are outdoors and there is alot of walking. If you have kids, I highly recommend you bring a stroller to avoid carrying a heavy baby.

去白川郷前，最好預先安排一天好天氣才好參觀因為全部的景點都是在戶外的和有很多路要走．如果你有小朋友，最好帶一架BB車因為我想你不會想整天抱着一個那麼重的BB

While we were there, it was the beginning of winter so there was already a little bit of snow. This was Baby E’s first time seeing and playing with snow.
