Samurai ( Japanese warrior) hairstyle, "Chonmage" (a topknot) on the old house
2015.11.23
A decoration looks like a “Chonmage” (a topknot) on the roof of an old house standing in the area where it looks like one of the scenes from once-upon-a-time story.
This decoration used to symbolize that residents of this place were really Samurais (Japanese warriors).
It might be a pride of Samurais who lived in the shadows in the mountain village.
I was at “Senkono Ie” in Sakai city in Fukui prefecture.
