Not far from Narita International Airport, there’s a village where you surely feel like you have strayed into a real village in the 19th century. At the entrance of the village 16 old merchant houses are built on both sides of the street ,making an atmosphere of the Edo period.
This place is sometimes used as a shooting place for movies.
There is a Liquor shop. Pharmacy, Pottery shop, Tea shop, Clothing (kimono)shop and more.

Going further into the village you'll come to the country side.
There, you will see big farmhouses reproduced in the splendid natural environment.
On the way here, you see Samurai houses, too.
