Ine no Funaya
landmark
伊根の舟屋
230 wooden boathouses with homes above boat garages, forming a floating village on Ine Bay.
Along Ine Bay on Kyoto Prefecture's northern coast, 230 wooden boathouses line the water's edge with living quarters built directly above boat garages, creating a floating-village effect unique in Japan. Fishing boats glide in and out of the ground-floor bays at high tide. Sea-taxi tours circle the bay for the best perspective, and several funaya have been converted to guesthouses and cafes.
