Hakuba Goryu Snow Resort

Narai-juku is the longest Shukuba. It is the most important protection zone of traditional building group in Japan. Many travelers would stay overnight in Narai, so it is also hailed as "Narai of a Thousand Houses". Here people are simple and honest. Walking down the road, I would feel relaxed. If you are interested in traditional architecture, Narai-juku would be a nice choice.

Kamikochi

Kamikochi is located on a great RuralJapan route between Matsumoto and Takayama City. If you are looking to get away from the big city and explore the road less traveled, Kamikochi and its surrounding areas have much to offer. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway
