Korea.Google does not recognise the name-help.

Hello - thanks for your question.

I think you are looking for Miyazu near Kyoto in Japan. There are
several pictures of the area which I hope will match with your
collection.

This picture shows Miyazu and a beautiful view beyond:

Most pictures of it are of the beautiful scenery, but it also has an
industrial park:

and four high schools:

There's an outline map of Japan showing Miyazu's location with a short
piece about a historic belfry there:

I hope this is what you are after. If not, please feel free to request
clarification and I will think again.
