The village is so beautiful and detailed that you might think the hobbits still live there. It's a wonderful village where it feels like the hobbits are opening their doors to greet you.

Enjoy the fun of finding the mix of real and fake, visit the protagonist's house and the cafe that served as a backdrop in the movie, and experience the feeling of becoming a hobbit while sipping ginger beer.
