Shirakawa-gō und Gokayama sind für ihre Häuser bekannt, die in einem Architekturstil namens Gasshō-zukuri (合掌造り, dt. etwa: „Stil der zum Gebet gefalteten Hände“, siehe Gasshō) erbaut wurden. Der Gasshō-zukuri wird charakterisiert durch die strohgedeckten, bis zu 60° steilen Dächer, die zum Gebet gefalteten Händen ähneln. Die robuste Bauweise in Kombination mit den Eigenschaften der Strohabdeckung erlaubt es den Häusern, den schweren Schneefällen (bis zu 4 m) der Region standzuhalten und den Schnee herabgleiten zu lassen.
Shirakawa-gō and Gokayama are renowned for their houses constructed in an architectural style known as Gasshō-zukuri (合掌造り), which roughly translates to "prayer-hands style" (see Gasshō). Gasshō-zukuri is characterized by steep, thatched roofs that can be as steep as 60 degrees, resembling hands folded in prayer. This robust construction, combined with the properties of the thatched roof, allows these houses to withstand the heavy snowfall of the region, which can reach up to 4 meters, and allows the snow to slide off.
