【Kamikatsu】Experience Traditional Village Life at Yaeji Hananotei
~To Those Considering a Trip to Kamikatsu ~ Kamikatsu is a small town with a population of less than 1,500. In 2003, it became the first municipality in Japan to make a "Zero Waste Declaration", aiming to become a garbage-free town. For responsible travelers who want to experience Kamikatsu as it really is and learn and enjoy through travel, we offer a variety of programs. ~STORY~ Deep within Kamikatsu lies the Yaeji Village, a place where the original scenery of Japan still remains. Beautiful terraced rice fields can be found among the mountains, with the sounds of running water beside the fields being heard. As night descends upon the village, smoke from the resident’s wood-fire baths can be seen rising into the air, giving a true feeling of how little the people’s way of life has changed. Overlooking the terraced rice fields from high above is the thatched-roof Hananotei. An important old folk house (kominkan), it has been restored using local materials and techniques that have been passed down through the ages. Gather around the sunken hearth together with those who are working to preserve the village and enjoy chatting, brewing coffee with a stone mortar, and grilling mochi... We also recommended you simply do nothing but sit and enjoy the view of the terraced rice fields. Come and visit Yaeji Village and enjoy a peaceful and heartwarming time.
