[Japan Hokuriku Travel] Gujo Hachiman Castle Town - A hidden gem in Japan🌊

The castle town of Gujo Hachiman Castle is an old town that still retains its ancient streets and has waterways everywhere, which is unique to Gujo Hachiman. Wandering around the castle town, there aren't many shops nearby, but it's quiet and leisurely, with a authentic Japanese atmosphere. Nearby is the Soji Water, which is a spring gushing out from the bridge and was selected as one of the most beautiful waters in Japan. It has been used for domestic water since ancient times. The running water is divided into three sections. The first section is drinking water, the second section is used for washing food, and the third section is used for washing dishes and clothes. It is a very smart way of using the water in sections. The most famous thing about Gujo Hachiman is the Gujo Dance. If you can't see it during the summer festival, you can visit the Gujo Hachiman Museum. The museum is rich in content and introduces the local waterway culture, humanities and history. At fixed times, there are also staff in kimono who demonstrate and teach the festival's Gujo Dance for a few minutes👘. It is very interesting to learn about the folk traditions of a small Japanese town.
