It is one of three or four small villages.From Shirakawa-go, which has become too commercialized and is viewed from above,It's a far more beautiful scenery.As I was passing by, I asked the proprietress a number of questions. You answered very kindly.thank you very much?

Since the prefecture is in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic, I searched and made a reservation through the Shirakawa-go Tourism Association.Since we are driving up to the Shirakawa-go Observation Deck, there are no other tourists in sight, and this is the perfect location for a ``real Gassho-zukuri countryside.''The owner's modest, polite and kind response, the wonderful way the food is prepared by making use of the best ingredients, and the well-finished hallways that reflect the light all make it a first-class restaurant.I think the food is especially noteworthy. To be frank, in the past, long-established inns and hotels used to serve food that all they had to do was follow the manual, the words, greetings, and appearance.However, Isaburo does not cut corners. I feel like I've discovered a humble, famous chef hidden behind a guesthouse that sells gassho-zukuri architecture.What's more, the quality of the ingredients means that even ordinary pickles have been seasoned with a seasoning that shows the amount of time and effort put into them. Appearance.I felt happy the more times I took it to my mouth.I planned a trip to make my mother, who is hard of hearing, happy, and I ended up being even more happy with it.Even after GoTo ends, I want to visit you regularly and become a regular customer.Honestly, I don't like writing nice things because it means I won't get a reservation, but I honestly wrote this because I wanted my wife, who has the same name as my mother, to be as happy as we were.

I went on a trip with a friend. This is an inn that the Shirakawa-go Tourism Association introduced to us and made a reservation for us, as we expressed a desire to stay in a gassho-style inn.It was a cold day, but they provided a hot water bottle.The room was a typical Japanese style room, but the food was very delicious.The accommodation fee was 9,500 yen per person + 500 yen for heating, so it was a very cost-effective accommodation.The landlady was also kind and accommodating, making it an enjoyable stay.
