Whenever I visit machiya it reminds me of my grandparents’ house! It’s great that there are some cozy cafes and hotels that were built by renovating old machiya in Kyoto! 😍💕
thanks Dave really enjoyed this (such an impressive fusion of architecture) this episode could easily be twice as long and still as fascinating, appreciate !!
Wood architecture in east Asia fascinates me. It's almost irrational in a sense, considering its vulnerability. I am used to the US where it tends to be mixed concrete and wood, or Scotland where it was stone/earth and wood, but even those were slightly more immune to fire. But the Japanese (and presume the rest of east Asia) became so good at woodworking that it never made sense to transition to stone outside the context of fortifications.
Too short, would've loved to see more! Was curious about the kitchen setup :) But this was still a beautiful and relaxing video. I love the lack of clutter in these matchiya.

If anyone is ever able to travel again I will stay there for sure. Hopefully spring 2022. Do you know who the Maiko is in the picture at the entrance?
spring 2021? ^^

Good on her for getting her teeth fixed!
