What other travelers are saying about Kayabuki-no Sato
Our visit to Miyama Village was an absolute delight and easily deserves a 5-star review! After a scenic 2-hour bus ride from Ine Funaya, we arrived at this picturesque village, known for its beautifully preserved thatched-roof houses and serene countryside ambiance.
Everything in Miyama is within walking distance, making it perfect for a leisurely exploration. The local treats were unforgettable—we tried the buckwheat cookies, fried yam, and black soybean soft ice cream, all of which were delicious. But the real highlight was their milk pudding—truly the best pudding we’ve ever had! Its creamy texture and rich flavor were simply unmatched.
The village feels like a step back in time, offering a peaceful escape from the bustle of city life. While our day trip was wonderful, we’re already planning to return for an overnight stay to soak in more of Miyama’s charm.
Miyama Village is a must-visit for anyone exploring the Amanohashidate and Ine areas. Its combination of scenic beauty, warm hospitality, and amazing local food makes it an unforgettable destination!
Very macam Shirakawa 白川 but its not ...its Kayabuki No Sato 美山 かやぶきの里 instead...same same but different...both with well-preserved thatched-roof farmhouses n tis 1 located @ Miyama area. It takes over 2hrs to travel from Kyoto Station, total used jo 5hrs+ for da journey & I only stay 1 hr there jek..LoL... but worth it geh.. very peaceful town ☺️☺️☺️
Scenic views and peaceful atmosphere to explore Kyoto countryside. A bit of a drive to get here. I would recommend coming here only if you want to take photos. Nothing much else to do aside from wandering to take in the views.
