A retro Showa-era spot that has been buzzing in recent years! This is Takayama Showakan, a tourist spot in Gifu Prefecture. This time, we will introduce Takayama Showakan, located in an old town. This facility recreates the streets of Japan in 1955 and is equipped with everyday items from that time. There are barber shops, photo studios, general stores, public baths, pubs, dance halls, snack bars, and more, so you can experience everyday life at that time. It's like the scenery in the movie "ALWAYS Sunset on Third Street" Have you ever seen it? It's so wonderful, isn't it? It really feels like that! [✍️Points to enjoy✍️] All the posters in the building are real! The previous director seems to have collected them from all over the country!

📌Getting There: The most convenient and fastest way to do this is from the city of Nagoya by train or bus. 🚇 - by train from Nagoya station without transfers in two and a half hours, cost 6140 yen (it is better to book a seat in advance) 🚍 - by direct bus from Nagoya Eki Taikodoriguchi Station in two and a half hours, cost 3,600 yen 📝important note! It is better to leave Nagoya for Takayama on the earliest train or bus, then you will have time to visit the morning market, and maybe both morning markets. 📌Attractions: - Jinya-mae Morning Markets - Miyagawa Morning Markets Morning markets, both markets are very interesting, visit each! for me the local produce was more interesting, I found and bought honey produced by local bees. - Takayama Shōwa-kan Museum Showa Museum. Spend some money and visit this museum to step back in time. You can interact with the exhibits here. - Takayama Sky Park Within the city limits on the mountainside there is a park from which the best view of the city of Takayama opens up, be sure to take a walk in the park! - Tenryo-no-yu You can end the day in a public hot spring bath.

This time, I chose to go to Nagoya! At the airport, the must-buy souvenir is, of course, Nagoya shrimp crackers. Then, you must try the eel rice at the famous Japanese restaurant, Houraiken! The eel is grilled over charcoal, highly recommended. On the second day, I chose to drive to Takayama. The top choice for food is Hida beef sushi! The old-fashioned streets and the Takayama morning market are must-visit attractions.

I recommend it because I think children will enjoy it too!! 📍6 Shimoichinomachi, Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture 🕰️9:00-17:00 💰Admission fee: 1000 yen

Many people would sign up for a one-day tour to visit Shirakawa-go and Takayama. Although this would save them the hassle of transportation and allow them to visit both places in the shortest amount of time, after reading the introduction to Takayama attractions, I decided to take my parents to spend the night in Takayama! Play from morning till night! For breakfast, I recommend going to Miyagawa Morning Market (no need to say more). There are various hot food stalls along the way. First, buy a bottle of Hida milk in a glass bottle, which is fresh, fragrant and smooth. Two steps away, there are takoyaki. The stall owner is flipping the balls. The online games I played in elementary school are still vivid in my mind. The soft and fragrant sauce is really appetizing! There is also a must-try pudding, available in hot and cold varieties. I chose the hot pudding, which had a super fragrant egg and milk flavor, without any bubbles at all. After finishing a cup, I felt like I wanted another encore~ When strolling around Takayama Furumachi, in addition to the Hida beef sushi that you must order, you can also try skewered dango, gohei cakes and beef skewers. But to be honest, apart from checking in to prove that you have been there, the tastes are really not to your liking. There is a Warabimochi restaurant in Furumachi that has very good reviews, but it sells out very quickly. Google says it's open until 3pm, but when I got there at 2pm, it was already "Closed". You must go to the sake brewery to try the sake. I usually drink sake and fruit wine, and I love grapefruit wine. I tried 3 cups and finally ordered a bottle to bring back! If you like retro attractions, please go to Takayama Showa Museum! You need a ticket but take your time to walk around and take pictures. I can't believe I spent two hours there! I took a photo of the little drama with my travel companions with my mobile phone. I can’t stop laughing when I watch it again~ If you want to eat barbecue in the evening, there will be people queuing before the door opens. I believe you will have to wait for a table if you come late. (I don’t eat beef, so I have no comment) Gaoshan ended the day early and went back to the hotel to soak in the hot springs and have a good rest. It was so cool!

(Alpine Showa) A second pass back to the Showa era - really a recommended place, here we have a few fun to play for a morning ~ draw on the blackboard, wear various photos to take pictures - all the streets, cottages, The props are practical and you want to hide the shape of the place ~ the most important thing is! people! very! less! Happy and happy recently, I havent made a portrait... because every year, Im three pounds []

I would also like to recommend a photo in the mountains, that is, the Takayama Showa Museum in Japan, which reproduces the life scenes of the Showa era. Although I dont understand the era of the country, I still like to see these old things. I went there. This store is also very good. It is worthwhile to visit and recommend you. There should be a lot of activities on New Year's Day. Store name: Takayama Shwa-kan Museum (Japan Takayama Showakan) 6 Shimoichinomachi
