Kyoto! Miyama, the Hidden Gem!

Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka...are you tired of over touristy places?? But of course, still want to enjoy traditional beauty of Japanese culture. But maybe want some nature with less people. or maybe want to drive in Japan too? Go to Miyama in Kyoto! it's 1-2hrs drive from the city center. Such a healing road trip. Local market Michi no Eki to get some local snacks and veggies. You can enjoy camping, hot springs, maybe swimming in the river in a month. Small rivers everywhere and Water is super clear. Also visit “kayabuki no Sato”. A small village of traditional houses with Kayabuki roof, which is special traditional technique to protect the house using straws. Interesting to see how ppl still actually living there. It’s same as Shirakawa go in Gifu prefecture (?) or Nagano prefecture(?) I forgot. Anyway 1extra day trip to the countryside is strongly recommended just like I did! #kyoto #kyototrip #japan #miyamavillage
