I do try. The human village is obviously much more martial in nature. It's an living fortress, where the inhabitants eye the main character suspiciously with guards around every corner. Besides the few places set apart to allow somewhat more questionable businesses, though those are very much still watched at all times. Most of the land consists of a massive dark forest. The type where the trees block out any sunlight, and every corner looks the exact same. Which is not to say there aren't some very mystical places hidden beneath the foliage. As well as the occasional tiny hamlet, all of which are filled with very uncanny people that are just a bit too hospitable and eager to get you to the local inn. Those are probably the least dangerous community you could find, by the way. There's also the misty lake. Which, despite the name, is nothing like the one in Touhou. It's basically every mythical island range in Greek, Irish, and any other mythology smashed together.

The one place I'm not entirely satisfied with from a "Actually give this place character" is the equivalent of Youkai mountain. I think I should go for a more Scandinavian mountain vibe to it, but it's hard to say if that would really fit into the setting geographically or thematically. Not-Scarlet Devil mansion is also basically the same. The only really major difference being the lack of fairy maids, which means the whole place is VERY empty.
