Shirakawa-Go

Previously:
Kanazawa & Shirakwa-Go (Part 1)


We made a short stop at Shirakawa-Go before caught the evening bus.  Shirakawa-Go is a UNESCO heritage.  The traditional low roof houses are preserved in this area.  It was a nice feeling to be able to see this place in different season.  First time we went there was in autumn and the second time it was end of winter.  But the snow was still covering the roof.  Some people said that winter is actually the best season to visit here.  As the touch of white snow gave a pretty contrast color to the roof and the town became very charming.  I believe all the seasons bring the charms in its time.  Should I visit all??  Have any of you ever visit this place in summer or spring?  And How was it?

However, the atmosphere around here wasn't that peaceful and quite like in the past.  So many tourists, too much tourists actually,  made us cannot fully enjoy the moment and the view.  I personally always prefer off the beaten track.
