[Shirakawa, Gifu Prefecture] World Heritage Site x Snow Scenery⛄️

Located near the border with Ishikawa Prefecture, Shirakawa-go, a World Heritage Site and Gifu's treasure, is a charming village with houses called gassho-zukuri that still exist. 📷 The townscape, which feels like a time slip, is wonderful, and in winter, the atmosphere is even more impressive when it is covered in deep snow. ⤴️ At its peak, the snow can reach nearly 2 meters. 😲 There are many picturesque places to stroll around the village! In addition, the Ogimachi Castle Ruins Observatory, located on high ground, is a popular spot where you can overlook the village, so don't forget to check it out. ☝️ It is a bit difficult to access by car in winter, but there are direct express buses from Nagoya, Kanazawa, and Toyama, and there are also buses from Takayama. 🚍 #Snowscape2024 #100TravelStyles #DomesticTravel #GifuPrefecture #Hida #Shirakawa-go #WorldHeritage #Gassho-zukuri #Winter #WinterStunningViews
