Marchen (fairy-tale) buildings
This village was conceived in the 1970-1980s in an attempt to construct buildings with cultural value, and that would be loved by the local population. The city of Oyabe constructed these 35 public buildings to resemble famous European structures. You can tour a nursery school, elementary school, junior high school, and community center to enjoy their unique characteristics. It's a new kind of sightseeing spot in Oyabe.
