I found a Hokkaido alternative and a winter tour of Your Name!

This is one of the most unforgettable snow scenes I've ever seen! Because of the scene in Your Name where Taki stands in front of the "Hida" photo wall in the museum, I remember this mysterious landlocked area deeply. Gifu Prefecture has a rustic name, but it is not only the filming location of Your Name, but also a world heritage fairy tale town, and snow as dreamy as Hokkaido! The key is - there are not many people! . Your Name pilgrimage: Mainly concentrated in Hida Takayama and Hida Furukawa, you can travel back and forth by JR or bus. ⛰Takayama: The old town of Machiya, which retains the Edo style of 400 years ago, has mostly been turned into restaurants, cafes, etc., and it is very interesting to visit! You can also experience a rickshaw! There will be winter-only events in the nearby Mori below freezing. Filming location: Miyagawa Morning Market, Hie Shrine . 🌊Furukawa: The town is small and very, very quiet. Visit the streets of the late Edo and early Meiji periods in Shirakabe Dozo Street, a must-see for a pilgrimage. Filming location: Must-see Furukawa JR Station, Hida beef mascot in the station, specialty snack Gohei mochi, Sakura Bussankan weaving movie hand rope World Heritage Fairy Tale Town: Shirakawa-go, this is one of the top 10 must-see lists of my life - a white village surrounded by deep mountains, with triangular huts sitting in between, really beautiful to the point of being unreal! Transportation: You can take a bus from Nagoya or Hida Takayama, and you can make a day trip . Magome-juku, back to Edo: This is the only way to connect Kyoto and Tokyo in the 17th century, built on mountain roads, steep terrain, rickshaw horses really can't cross, so they have to leave the horses at the station, hence the name. It takes about 2 hours from Tajimi City, but the snow scene on the mountain road is really spectacular! Step into the snow on the cobblestone path of Magome-juku and admire the Edo houses on both sides. It seems to take me back to that era. . My 4-day itinerary: DAY 1: Beijing - Nagoya - Tajimi City DAY 2: Magome-juku - Ena Gorge - Taisho Village DAY 3: Hida Takayama - Hida Furukawa - Hida Takayama DAY 4: Shirakawa-go - Nagoya - Beijing (Ena Gorge is generally personal, no need to go on purpose) . Transportation: Direct flights from Beijing to Nagoya, and then transfer through JR + Meitetsu Bus, you can use the Dragon Ascent Road Pass, there are different routes for three days and five days. . The first trip of the new year, if you don't want to squeeze people in Hokkaido, you might as well travel in the opposite direction and go to the niche Gifu!! Japan·Asia Gifu City·Gifu Prefecture
