After only a few minutes the rain passed and children once again launched their dinghies onto the calm waters of the bay🚣♂️
#funaya
Although many of the 'funaya' (船屋) have now been renovated into holiday homes, shops and cafés, originally they wouldn't have been used as houses but rather as storage sheds.
Fishermen would have had a family home slightly inland, and used the funaya for work needs.

As the famous Hokuriku saying goes "even if you forget your lunch, don't forget your umbrella" (弁当忘れても傘忘れるな)🌂
The region's silk fabrics have long been praised for their quality, in part thanks to the moist microclimate which keeps silk threads supple and strong.
About 230 'funaya' (船屋) now circle Ine Bay.
In order to protect the fishermen's boats from rain, rot and insects, the houses were designed so that the boat could be lifted out of the water onto the ground floor.
Nets and gear would be stored on the floor above.
'Chinzao' (台湾茶専門店 靑竈) does not have a menu. Rather the owner produces a selection of teas for each guest from the 100 or so Taiwanese varieties kept in stock.
The experience is designed to be a meditative one, and you should put aside at least 1 hour for teatime.
A squall arrived as tea was served...disappearing before the cup was even empty.
The Tango Peninsula is famed for its microclimate. 'Uranishi' (うらにし) is a sudden wind that blows across the waters from autumn to winter, bringing with it sudden changes in weather and heavy rain.
