Shirakawa, Japan — Where's designated photo spot looking over village hovels and grass?

score:4

This view is of the Gassho no Sato portion of the Gero Onsen Gassho-mura folk village. This is, as the quote in your question mentions, quite literally an outdoor museum.

At Gero Onsen Gassho-mura, 10 gassho-zukuri (thatched) houses have been transferred from places like Shirakawa-go to form a precious outdoor museum which recreates a mountain settlement from former times, and offers a glimpse into what life might have been like for its inhabitants.

To find this, I loaded Google Earth, went to Shirakawa, found a portion of the town that looks like the following (with all the indications of photos taken in that area), and started reading photo descriptions. From there the links to Gero Onsen Gassho-mura are clear.
