		Shirakawa-go and Gokayama are slowly gaining fame thoughout Japan and the world as the home to a unique, and until recently under publicised part of Japan's culture.
		Located deep in the mountains of northern Gifu and Toyama prefectures, the Shirakawa-go and Gokayama districts were cut off from the rest of Japanese society because of their extremely isolated location in remote mountain valleys, and as such developed a very unique culture and lifestyle different from any other area of Japan.
		These villages, along with numerous others, are located in a steep, mountainous area of the Sho River Valley in the Chubu mountain range.
