π Iga-cho Funaya - The Romantic Charm of a Century-Old Fishing Villag
Tucked away in the northernmost part of Kyoto lies a fishing village, Iga-cho, that seems to have stepped out of a manga! It was the most anticipated part of my eight-day free trip in Japanο½And it completely exceeded my expectations π π Featured Recommendations: Boat Cruise π₯ Iga Bay: Remember to buy shrimp chips at the boarding area before getting on the boat to feed the seagulls; it's the same shrimp chips we usually eat! It will definitely be an unforgettable memory! Unique Architecture π: The funaya of Iga-cho are the epitome of fishermen's wisdom. The ground floor of these houses opens directly to the sea for mooring fishing boats and storing fishing gear, while the upper floor is a cozy home. Strolling among the funaya feels like traveling through time, experiencing the fishing lifestyle of the Edo period π£. Serene Waterside Town π: Walking along the river, you'll see the funaya reflected in the water, with sparkling waves, peaceful and beautiful. Rent a small boat and drift along the river, enjoying the rare leisure and freedom. π§ββοΈ Letting Go: Find a riverside cafΓ©, order a cup of rich coffee, sit quietly by the window, and watch the river flow gently. #TravelWithLovedOnesToSeeScenery #MyOffTheBeatenPathTravelGuide #TravelDiary #SeeDifferentScenes #OffTheBeatenPathTourism #Travel #SeeSceneryTogether #TravelGuide #JapanFreeTrip #JapanTravelGuide βπΆπ
