New Values, Old Ways

The world is changing.
The way we work, the way we live, what we value.

Thinking about mental and physical wellbeing before material wealth.
Valuing craftmanship, creativity, and quality. Slow living and time well spent.
Sustainable and organic over cheap and fast.
Appreciating the genuine warmth of human connections.
This is Gokayama. And it’s been that way for generations.

If you want to make a change, visit Gokayama.
And experience a more authentic way of living.

A Warm Welcome Every Time

Community is central to life in Gokayama.
People are always quick to lend a hand and grateful for the help of others.
Generations of living with nature teaches you an important lesson:
nothing and no one should be taken for granted.

Maybe that’s why the people here are so accepting,
unselfish in their appreciation
and generous with their kindness.
They give without expecting anything in return.

It’s why visitors are always warmly welcomed,
and why they keep coming back.

Tour

A trip to Gokayama is a trip back in time.
Stepping into the peaceful tranquility of a bygone era.
Joy in simple pleasures, an intuitive understanding of nature.
A spiritual connection to the land that is both Japanese and universal.
It’s something that can’t be described.
To know it, you can only experience it.
And once you have, you’ll want to make a change too.

Gokayama is not for people who just want to escape the digital daily grind.
It’s for people who are seeking new values in old ways.
People who are ready to make a change to their lives.
To make a change to a more authentic way of living.
