“We are honoured to offer a truly unique experience in Suganuma village, a World Heritage Site, through our collaboration with Airbnb. The thatching technique is a local tradition that requires a great deal of time and effort, so locals work together based on the system of yui, the spirit of mutual support, in which Suganuma and its preservation are rooted. The village’s Gassho-zukuri style farmhouses, like the Nakashimas’ family home, are unique to the region, with their pitched, thatched roof structures enabling these homes to withstand heavy winter snowfall and the test of time. This unique Airbnb stay offers guests the opportunity to experience the village in a way that upholds its traditions and preserves its heritage for generations to come. Often regarded as a “hidden village” because it is without tourist accommodations (and typically, only residents are permitted to enter after dusk), Suganuma is a cultural time capsule. In a recent survey, more than 60 percent of respondents said they felt traveling on Airbnb provided a closer connection to the local culture than staying in a hotel or resort. This Airbnb will enable guests to explore Suganuma village in an incredibly authentic way.įollowing three years of travel restrictions, lockdowns and isolation, locals and travellers alike are seeking connection with the world around them. With great support from Nanto City, the Nakashima family – fifth generation locals – are listing their centuries-old, thatched-roof house on the platform. This summer, Airbnb is offering guests the opportunity to experience this World Heritage Site in a way no one else has in over 20 years – with an overnight stay in one of its historic homes.
It is also one of the country’s best kept secrets. Situated on the shores of the Sho River and surrounded by high, rugged mountains, the nine-home village of Suganuma is one of the most beautiful and charming places in Japan.
