Comment Sanshu Asuke Yashiki is an old farmhouse from the early Meiji Era, reconstructed in 1980. Inside, aspects of farmhouse life and manual work are reenacted, including straw crafts, weaving and paper making, which were common features in every Japanese mountain village until the mid-'50s. By recreating the country life and manual techniques that gradually disappeared during Japan's period of high economic growth and with technological innovations, the house provides an opportunity to reflect upon our present way of living.
