We're talking about Shirakawa-go, a fairy-tale village of traditional thatched-roof houses in the Gifu Prefecture in Japan. The way that the villagers here in this Japanese countryside lives together and helps each other is a heart-warming reminder of how important it is to have a community. We also visit a neighbouring city called Takayama which has a bustling morning market, local sake breweries, and everywhere we go we keep smelling delicious grilled Hida beef!
