Nantan
7.2
Lower score (below 6)
Nantan is a large rural municipality in the mountains west of Kyoto that includes the Miyama district, whose preserved kayabuki (thatched-roof) farmhouse village pulls photographers and weekend tourists from Kyoto. The city of about 33,000 outside that photogenic pocket is agricultural — rice, vegetables, forestry — with a social landscape that closes quickly for outsiders. Miyama looks like a film set and attracts day visitors who leave before dark; the people who actually live there are a tight farming community with no interest in social mixing. The one-hour trip from Kyoto city by car reinforces the isolation.
