    Discovering the Charming Old Streets of Takayama The old townscape of Takayama is a must-visit tourist spot in Hida Takayama. It is always bustling with visitors, irrespective of the time of your visit. The old streets are characterized by trellised latticework, irrigation canals flowing under the eaves, and "sakebayashi" - a signboard made of cedar leaves - hanging down at sake breweries. The eaves are lined with noren curtains of long-established stores and the large doors of townhouses, further enhancing the place's charm.

     

    Hida Shirakawa-go - Japan's Hidden Gem Gassho-zukuri is a traditional architectural style thatched roof building. The Gassho-zukuri village in Hida Shirakawa-go is a World Heritage Site known for its over 100 Gassho-zukuri buildings of various sizes that are still inhabited. You can also explore other tourist attractions highlighting traditional wisdom and techniques, including Hirase Onsen, known for its hot springs from the sacred mountain Hakusan.
