Shinhotaka Ropeway and Snow Forest ❄️ If you have a chance to go to Takayama in winter, I would like to recommend adding a plan to go here. The snow is so fluffy 🌨️☃️ It is so beautiful. You can see the Japan Alps very clearly 🏔️ For those who want this view, I recommend checking the forecast on a day when it does not snow. The sky is clear. The ropeway has 2 stations. The first station is a normal ropeway and the second station is a 2-story ropeway, the only one in Japan. ✨🚠 The entrance fee can be bought online from the website or you can buy it at the ropeway station. Prepare warm clothes because it is very cold up there, -7 degrees. 🥶🥶 Traveling to the ropeway by private car is the easiest way. The road is easy to drive on. There is a parking lot near the ropeway station. 🚖🚘 Or if you don't rent a car, there is a bus from Takayama city to here. #TravelJapan

♨️Hot spring location: I experienced an outdoor snow hot spring at Fukuji Onsen♨️, which was amazing. I chose the Hida Takayama route (Okuhida Onsen-go). I bought a 3-day Nohi Bus pass at Takayama Bus Terminal, which allows unlimited rides on the Takayama Bus Terminal - Shin-Hotaka Ropeway route + a round-trip ride on the Shin-Hotaka Ropeway within 3 days. 🛻Transportation: Take a bus to Fukuji Onsen Station, which is right next to the bus stop. Three private outdoor baths are open in winter, and two of them are open. You don't even need to make a reservation or pay extra for the private bath. You can go for a soak as long as there is no one in the bath. When you enter, turn the sign at the door to "occupied" and lock the door to enjoy your exclusive hot spring village, which includes both indoor and outdoor baths. ❄️Snow scenery: That night, I soaked in the hot spring in the snow, and in the morning, I watched the snow and the sunlight reflecting on the hot spring. There was a naturally formed ice wall opposite, which was very photogenic🤣 🫵Summary tips: In summary, Fukuji Onsen is a great value and worth visiting for a hot spring♨️.

Every day at Okuhida Fukuchi Onsen is filled with happiness. It happens to be snowing❄️, but the sky is clear during the day. It’s really intoxicating how beautiful the sky is. The waitresses were very enthusiastic. I chatted with the lady in charge of dinner for a long time and even received a small note from her. While walking 🚶‍♀️, I met a shop assistant who was on vacation by chance, and we visited a nearby ice waterfall together. The next day, she printed out our 📷 photo as a gift, which was touching. ♨️The hotel's hot springs are rich and diverse, with three private hot springs (both indoor and outdoor), two open-air baths (Mori no Yu: rock bath + hatchet bath) and men's and women's large baths. At night, quietly enjoy the scenery of falling snowflakes in the hot spring pool, feeling peaceful and peaceful like never before. I sincerely recommend friends who come to high mountains to choose this hot spring hotel. I believe you will have an unforgettable experience.

#ItinerarySharing As one of the world's cultural heritage sites, the Hida Takayama area in Gifu Prefecture, surrounded by nature, is breathtakingly beautiful. As an ancient town representing the Hida Takayama area, Takayama Old Street still retains the old streetscape of the Edo period. The three old streets in the upper and lower towns of Takayama are called Takayama Old Streets. Among them, "Sanmachi-dori" located in Kami-San-no-machi, Kami-Nin-machi, and Kami-Ichino-machi is a famous tourist spot in Takayama. Transportation Tips: The Hida Takayama area is located in Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture. Take the Shinkansen from Tokyo or Osaka to Nagoya Station. From Nagoya, you can take the express bus to Takayama Station or the Hida Express Train to Takayama Station, and then walk to the old street. Alternatively, you can take the Nohi bus or tour bus from Takayama Station to reach the old street. The transfer information at Takayama Station is quite clear, so the transfer is not difficult. The town has many quaint old shops lining both sides of the street. The whole street is hung with old-fashioned noren curtains and other charming street scenes full of original Japanese scenery. The rows of machiya buildings retain the traditional style with lattice sliding windows (called "chugoko" in Japanese), and you can feel the strong historical atmosphere and traditional culture. There are also wine cellars, cafes renovated from old houses, and general stores. It is recommended to take a walk and carefully appreciate the beauty of the old street. Don’t miss the Takayama delicacies such as Hida beef, soy sauce dumplings, croquettes and gohei cakes. The Miyagawa Morning Market, which runs along the coastal road from Kaji Bridge to Yayoi Bridge, is a historic morning market that dates back to the Edo period. It is one of the three largest morning markets in Japan, along with the Wajima Morning Market in Ishikawa Prefecture and the Katsuura Morning Market in Chiba Prefecture. Most of them are locally picked seasonal vegetables, fruits, flowers, pickles and mochi-like processed products, as well as a few handicrafts and snack stalls. Takayama Jinya was the place where officials such as the magistrate and the county magistrate carried out government affairs during the Edo period. It consisted of an official office, residences for officials and their subordinates, and a warehouse. The deputies and county representatives dispatched from Edo all carried out government affairs in Hida at Takayama Jinya. Inside the building, there are many places worth seeing, such as the entrance reception room with the eye-catching "Aokai wave" pattern, the official office (Goyakusho), the local official office (Goyōchō), the lobby (Ōhiroma), the official residence (Yakuya), and the court (Mishirasu). The entire Takayama Old Street is usually arranged together with the Shirakawa-go itinerary. The photo was taken at the end of February when we went to Hida Takayama. It will still snow at the high latitude, and it will sometimes be sunny and sometimes rainy, so you still need to keep warm in this season.

I arrived in Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture, and checked into an onsen ryokan called 'Takayama Sakura-an.' This ryokan is very conveniently located just a few hundred meters from Takayama Station, surrounded by blooming cherry blossoms that immediately gave me a sense of spring as soon as I stepped in. The room's decor is elegant, filled with traditional Japanese style. I couldn't wait to head to the onsen, soaking in the warm spring water and feeling the tension in my muscles gradually ease. The water is clear and refreshing, making me feel rejuvenated. After soaking in the onsen, you can enjoy unlimited ice cream ❤️ In the evening, from 9:30 to 10:30, you can enjoy free Japanese ramen at the ryokan, which is incredibly satisfying. This trip to Takayama Sakura-an not only allowed me to enjoy a relaxing time but also let me experience the beauty of Japanese culture and nature. It was truly an unforgettable journey!

#春天好去处2024 #日本旅行 #日本 #高速巴士 #中途站 In mid-May 2024, I made an online reservation for a high-speed bus ticket, picked up the ticket at the bus center, and went to Takayama from Nagoya in the early morning. The journey takes about three hours. After driving for about an hour, the driver stopped at a station and gave passengers ten minutes to get off the bus and go to the bathroom. There are also some shops where you can buy coffee, snacks and souvenirs.

Come with me on a day trip to Takayama from Nagoya. Explore the charming old town, which is located in the mountainous Hida region of Gifu Prefecture. The place retains a traditional touch unlike Tokyo or Osaka. And drop by Falò Coffee Brewers for some speciality coffee. Seated in a renovated old private house more than 100 years old, they use single-origin beans like Ethiopia Worka, KENYA Kamwangi, and RWANDA Mbilima. P.S: reserve a seat on the right side (Seat A & B) for a beautiful view of Gifu Prefecture. #solotravel

One of the goals of this trip was to visit the World Heritage Site Shirakawa-go. Although driving in the snow was a bit troublesome and colder than expected, the scenery blanketed in white snow was well worth it! The old town of Takayama is less than an hour's drive from Shirakawa-go, and it's definitely worth adding this spot to your itinerary. Strolling through the century-old shops on the old street is a delightful experience. There are many handicraft shops, restaurants, cafes, etc., all great places to enjoy the snow. At the end of the old street, there's a red bridge that looks even more beautiful under the snowscape. Don't miss out if you like to take photos!

"Hida Takayama", "Nakabashi", "Sanmachisuji", "Takayama Jinya" Hida Takayama, this quaint tourist street, walk all the way from Nakabashi to Mimachisuji, 🪭 There are delicious shops and markets on this street, and the aroma of Hida beef skewers can be smelled from time to time. There are also souvenirs to buy along the way. The traditional wooden townhouse buildings from the Edo period are preserved here and are regarded as an "important traditional building protection area" by the Japanese government. Taking a walk here, you will be overwhelmed by the strong historical atmosphere, as if traveling through time. Here, you can not only enjoy the taste of delicious food, but also deeply experience the local culture! This kind of atmosphere is really a place to linger ♥️ #Good place for families #familytravel #Japan #Hida #HighMountain #Gifu #Sanchosuji #gourmet food

Name: Takayama Jinya Takayama Jinya is the only site of a magistrate's office in Japan where the main buildings still remain, giving you a taste of the Edo period. In 1692, the 5th year of the Genroku era, the Kanamori clan, who ruled Hida, were ordered by the Edo Shogunate to move to Kaminoyama in Dewa Province (present-day Yamagata Prefecture and part of Akita Prefecture). In the same year, the Edo Shogunate established a government office in Hida as a direct territory, and a magistrate (from the 12th generation onwards, a magistrate) dispatched by the Shogunate carried out the work of governing Hida. Of the 60 or so magistrate's offices and county magistrate's offices that were said to have existed throughout the country at the end of the Edo period, Takayama Jinya is the only one where the main buildings from that time remain. The museum is well worth seeing. Personally, I liked Oshirosu. This is a must-see when touring Hida Takayama. Please come and visit.

During my trip to explore Gifu prefecture, we stayed for 2 nights at Hida Takayama, a quaint town with a famous old town, Sanmachi Suji. As we strolled along the old streets of Sanmachi Suji, I couldn't help but feel like I had stepped back in time. The traditional wooden houses with their latticed windows and sloping roofs added to the old-world charm. The streets were lined with traditional sake breweries, tea houses, and craft shops, each with its own unique character. I also tried that was a local snack that was delicious. It's called Gohei Mochi, a grilled rice cake skewered on a stick and coated with a sweet miso sauce. Trust me, it's a must-try! One of my favorite discoveries was a quaint little gallery showcasing local artisans' souvenirs and crafts. We bought ourselves birds made of paper, as they were so cute (and cheap!). If you ever find yourself in this part of Japan, make sure to take a leisurely stroll through Sanmachi Suji. You won't be disappointed by its timeless beauty and the warm hospitality of its locals. #japan #urbanexplorer #takayama #tripblazers #summervacation #awesomepic

Takayama is a beautiful city located in the Gifu Prefecture of Japan. The city is known for its traditional wooden houses, narrow streets, and local craftsmanship, making it a must-visit destination for those looking to explore traditional side of Japan. The scenery is stunning though right now the city is filled with tourists so you would need to get up early to enjoy emptier streets. The city is surrounded by mountains, with breathtaking views of the snow-capped peaks in the distance. There are a few must-see museums but the highlight of the visit is definitely exploring the old town. The traditional wooden houses are fascinating to see, with the intricate carvings on their facades a testament to the skilled craftsmanship of the locals. Be sure to visit the morning market - with many local shops selling traditional snacks, crafts and souvenirs. Some places accept cards but do bring cash for those that do not. I recommend that you book your meals in advance, as walk in availability is very limited. Takayama is famous for Hida beef, which is a type of wagyu beef raised in the region. The local sake was also a treat, with breweries where you can try different varieties for a very reasonable price.
