100 Year Old Traditional Japanese Machiya House Tour #machiya #kyoto #japan #kyototrip #travel #vlog
Join us as we tour the property, courtyard, and unique features that make these dwellings so special. Many machiya in Kyoto are narrow but deep, called unagi no nedoko (a bed for an eel). The reason behind this was due to a strict tax system, which taxed property on how wide it was. A typical machiya might be 5 to 6 meters wide, but 20 meters deep.
