On a closed school site, architects each built one work - from a circular block copying a Paris artists' hive to a tea room in a tree.
Fujikawaguchiko
Itchiku Kubota Art Museum
The home of a dyer who independently revived tsujigahana dyeing, which appeared from the Muromachi to Momoyama periods; his kimono are hung in rows that form one continuous landscape.

Mt Fuji World Heritage Center
Shigeru Ban hung a paper-covered inverted cone over water, so its reflection becomes the mountain.

Kanzo Yashiki
A house that supplied liquorice to the shogunate, its roof raised in three tiers for silkworm rearing.

No piers: timbers cantilever out from both banks in stages - a method invented because the gorge was too deep to stand in.

Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Sengen Shrine
The start of the Yoshida climbing route, its painted Momoyama sanctuary standing at the end of a giant cedar avenue.

Oshi Pilgrim Lodgings
Lodgings for Fuji pilgrims: long narrow plots running back from the road, with a channel drawn in for purification.

Takeda Clan Residence Site
Shingen ruled from a square residence, not a castle - his saying that people are the castle, left in the ground.

Shingen Levee
Rather than sealing the river, the levee is deliberately gapped to let water escape - engineering doctrine as landscape.

Vineyards of Katsunuma
Trellised vineyards covering the slopes, where Japanese winemaking began; Meiji brick cellars still stand.

Thin lustrous silk that sold in Edo for linings and umbrellas, woven in this valley.

A highland community founded by an American missionary, its timber lodge buildings still standing in the woods.

Koumi Line and the Yatsugatake
A railway at 1,375 metres, a single drawn line across the plateau that photographers return to.
Kofu
Modern Architecture of Kofu
From pseudo-Western schools to postwar modernism, Kofu keeps the layers of a provincial city's modernity.
YamanashiArchitectureHayakawa
Villages of Hayakawa
A pilgrimage stop between two sacred mountains, its houses stepped up stone terraces on a steep slope.

Zen Temples of Kai
Zen spread here under Takeda patronage, leaving medieval halls and images scattered across the province.
YamanashiArchitectureFujiyoshida
Honcho Street, Fujiyoshida
A street aimed straight at Mt Fuji, its Showa shopfronts and the mountain falling into one frame.
