Saiko Iyashi-no-Sato Nenba

Saiko Iyashi-no-Sato Nenba, located near Lake Saiko in Fujikawaguchiko-machi, Japan, stands on the site of a once-thriving farming village that was devastated by a landslide in the 1960s. The village has been reimagined with thatched-roofed buildings, modeled after the original farmhouses. Today, these structures house craft workshops, restaurants, museums, galleries, and shops. Visitors can meander through the village, immersing themselves in the traditional life and handicrafts of the region, offering a tangible connection to its rich history and cultural heritage.
