Lovely minshuku in Ainokura village. Dinner and breakfast were delicious and plenty of food. Lovely host, eventhough she speak limited english.

Among three choice, I chose Ainokura as this place is very remoted and nothing modern which prohibits my thoughts exists around. Snow is more heavy than Suganuma and much less tourists than Shirakawago.You can take hot sake ''Sanshoraku'' at a cost which is made by local Sake maker nearby eating skewer grilled river fish, vegetables and Sashimi. You have to pay attention to a bus company called Kaetsuno which cancelled all of the sadden(actually they have been cancelled for more than one month but no announcement in the internet) the last bus to Ainokura from Johana which was believed in operation different from others which are officially canelled and announced in the internet. I ended up paying more than 8 times taxi fare than the bus ticket. A bus driver of Kaetsuno on the next day disregarded me and did not stop at the Ainokura bus stop and went about 50 meters and stopped. He shouldhave been thinking about other things or believed that no one would wait there at eary times
