■ Shirakawa-go: A Living World Heritage Site
Shirakawa-go, renowned for its stunning gassho-zukuri farmhouses, is not just a tourist destination—it’s a vibrant community where people live their daily lives. Please respect the privacy of residents by staying out of private properties beyond designated tourist areas. Let’s cherish the village’s beauty while honoring the quiet lives of its residents.
■ One Piece of Trash Can Make a Difference
Even a single piece of litter can burden Shirakawa-go. In this small village, where many residents are elderly, managing waste is a significant challenge. As global waste issues grow, we can make a difference with one simple act: take your trash with you. By doing so, you help preserve the future of this World Heritage Site. Please lend your support.
