Quote: Aug. 30, Tue. 0:30 - 1:00 (UTC) etc. "MIYAMA: Kyoto-Pref." - traditional thatched houses - Ashiu research forest - log cabin, furniture by hand The town of Miyama lies about 70 km. north of Kyoto City. It still has many wooden houses with traditional thatched roofs, giving a strong sense of the old days. On this edition of Journeys in Japan, Frauke Arndt-Kunimoto visits naturalist Masakazu Asanome, who has lived in Miyama's rich natural environment for 27 years. He built his own log cabin there, and also created a herb garden. Miyama straddles the border between warm and cold temperate zones, which gives rise to a very diverse range of vegetation. Thanks to the plentiful rainfall, plant life grows prolifically, and more than 200 kinds of trees can be found in the area. Masakazu Asanome made everything himself, entirely by hand: His log cabin, the herb garden, a tree terrace and even his furniture. Asanome takes Frauke on a hiking trip to explore Miyama's beautiful forests. The lush green mountains are covered by virgin forest, which has been protected from development. Frauke also experiences river walking and "shower climbing" in crystal-clear water. Traveler: Frauke Arndt-Kunimoto Access Map Access: From Tokyo, it takes two and a half hours by Shinkansen bullet train to Kyoto. Then it takes another two and a half hours by bus to reach Miyama. `<br></br>Dropped video frames<br></br><br></br> Found average frame timing of 32.66 ms<br></br><br></br> Line Duration (ms) Time window<br></br> 1164 2033 0:00:38.732 -> 0:00:40.765<br></br> 1165 1167 0:00:40.765 -> 0:00:41.932<br></br> 1166 3000 0:00:41.932 -> 0:00:44.932<br></br> 2805 1367 0:01:39.532 -> 0:01:40.899<br></br> 2806 3000 0:01:40.899 -> 0:01:43.899<br></br> 2807 3000 0:01:43.899 -> 0:01:46.899<br></br> 12055 1200 0:06:55.132 -> 0:06:56.332<br></br> 12056 2067 0:06:56.332 -> 0:06:58.399<br></br> 12057 6000 0:06:58.399 -> 0:07:04.399<br></br> 12680 1800 0:07:25.132 -> 0:07:26.932<br></br> 12681 3000 0:07:26.932 -> 0:07:29.932<br></br> 12682 3000 0:07:29.932 -> 0:07:32.932<br></br> 22471 66 0:12:59.199 -> 0:12:59.265<br></br> 27772 533 0:15:55.932 -> 0:15:56.465<br></br> 27773 500 0:15:56.465 -> 0:15:56.965<br></br> 27774 300 0:15:56.965 -> 0:15:57.265<br></br> 27775 267 0:15:57.265 -> 0:15:57.532<br></br> 27777 200 0:15:57.565 -> 0:15:57.765<br></br> 27781 267 0:15:57.865 -> 0:15:58.132<br></br> 27783 267 0:15:58.165 -> 0:15:58.432<br></br> 27785 267 0:15:58.465 -> 0:15:58.732<br></br> 27787 267 0:15:58.765 -> 0:15:59.032<br></br> 27789 3000 0:15:59.065 -> 0:16:02.065<br></br> 28068 1733 0:16:11.332 -> 0:16:13.065<br></br> 28069 3000 0:16:13.065 -> 0:16:16.065<br></br> 28701 933 0:16:37.099 -> 0:16:38.032<br></br> 28702 3000 0:16:38.032 -> 0:16:41.032<br></br> 28703 3000 0:16:41.032 -> 0:16:44.032<br></br> 29195 2500 0:17:00.399 -> 0:17:02.899<br></br> 29196 3000 0:17:02.899 -> 0:17:05.899<br></br> 29197 3000 0:17:05.899 -> 0:17:08.899<br></br> 30441 67 0:17:50.332 -> 0:17:50.399<br></br> 35192 1367 0:20:28.732 -> 0:20:30.099<br></br> 35193 3000 0:20:30.099 -> 0:20:33.099<br></br> 35194 2000 0:20:33.099 -> 0:20:35.099<br></br> 35646 367 0:20:50.132 -> 0:20:50.499<br></br> 35647 166 0:20:50.499 -> 0:20:50.665<br></br> 35652 133 0:20:50.799 -> 0:20:50.932<br></br> 35658 233 0:20:51.099 -> 0:20:51.332<br></br> 35661 166 0:20:51.399 -> 0:20:51.565<br></br> 35663 133 0:20:51.599 -> 0:20:51.732<br></br> 35664 167 0:20:51.732 -> 0:20:51.899<br></br> 35669 200 0:20:52.032 -> 0:20:52.232<br></br> 35673 233 0:20:52.332 -> 0:20:52.565<br></br> 35676 233 0:20:52.632 -> 0:20:52.865<br></br> 35679 167 0:20:52.932 -> 0:20:53.099<br></br> 35684 167 0:20:53.232 -> 0:20:53.399<br></br> 35689 200 0:20:53.532 -> 0:20:53.732<br></br> 35691 67 0:20:53.765 -> 0:20:53.832<br></br> 35692 133 0:20:53.832 -> 0:20:53.965<br></br> 35693 67 0:20:53.965 -> 0:20:54.032<br></br> 35697 267 0:20:54.132 -> 0:20:54.399<br></br> 35699 233 0:20:54.432 -> 0:20:54.665<br></br> 35700 100 0:20:54.665 -> 0:20:54.765<br></br> 35701 267 0:20:54.765 -> 0:20:55.032<br></br> 35703 167 0:20:55.065 -> 0:20:55.232<br></br> 35704 67 0:20:55.232 -> 0:20:55.299<br></br> 35707 267 0:20:55.365 -> 0:20:55.632<br></br> 35709 200 0:20:55.665 -> 0:20:55.865<br></br> 35713 200 0:20:55.965 -> 0:20:56.165<br></br> 37303 300 0:21:49.132 -> 0:21:49.432<br></br> 37304 3000 0:21:49.432 -> 0:21:52.432<br></br> 42084 400 0:24:31.732 -> 0:24:32.132<br></br> 42085 133 0:24:32.132 -> 0:24:32.265<br></br> 42086 2867 0:24:32.265 -> 0:24:35.132<br></br> 42087 3000 0:24:35.132 -> 0:24:38.132<br></br> 42682 1967 0:24:57.932 -> 0:24:59.899<br></br> 42683 2133 0:24:59.899 -> 0:25:02.032<br></br> 42684 3000 0:25:02.032 -> 0:25:05.032<br></br><br></br>Total frames: 47908<br></br>`
