It was a winter trip to Gifu, Japan with my partner. Gifu in winter is a magical escape filled with stunning scenery and cultural treasures 😍 We started our journey in Takayama, a charming city surrounded by the Japanese Alps. The preserved Sanmachi Suji district was a highlight, with its traditional wooden 🪵 buildings, sake breweries, and shops. Walking through the snow-covered streets felt like stepping back in time. The ambiance was perfect for photography, especially with the warm glow of lanterns at dusk. We also visited the Hida Folk Village, an open-air museum showcasing traditional houses covered in snow ❄️ a must-see for winter photography enthusiasts. 📍 Kamiichinomachi, Takayama, Gifu 506-0846 Hida Folk Village 📍1-590 Kamiokamoto-machi, Takayama, Gifu 506-0055 We also visited Shirakawa-go, the iconic UNESCO World Heritage village. The sight of the gassho-zukuri houses blanketed in snow was absolutely surreal. We explored the village and climbed up to the Shiroyama Viewpoint, which offers the best panoramic view of the entire village. The sunrise and sunset shots from here were spectacular, and the peaceful vibe made it one of the most memorable stops of our trip. We’d recommend staying until evening to see the houses lit up, an unforgettable experience for photographers 📸 Shirakawa-go Village 📍Ogimachi, Shirakawa-mura, Ono-gun, Gifu 501-5627 Shiroyama Viewpoint 📍Ogimachi, Shirakawa-mura, Ono-gun, Gifu 501-5627 We also traveled to Gero Onsen, one of Japan’s top hot spring towns. The combination of warm onsen baths and the snowy surroundings was incredibly relaxing. We took photos at the Gassho Village, a smaller version of Shirakawa-go, and enjoyed the peaceful riverside views 😍😍😍This was the perfect spot to capture winter serenity while unwinding 🏔️ We highly recommend soaking in an outdoor onsen for a truly immersive experience. Gassho Village 📍2369 Mori, Gero, Gifu 509-2202 Gero Onsen 📍Yunoshima, Gero, Gifu 509-2207 Gifu in winter is a photographer’s paradise 📸 From the snowy landscapes of Shirakawa-go to the nostalgic streets of Takayama and the serene onsen experiences in Gero, every corner is 😍😍😍 #japantrip #vacation #getaway

#japantrip In any summer in the capital city, you can never imagine the existence of the Tokugawa Kyoto Igen Funhouse: with a glass sea. The Japanese "Venice" is known as: taking the Danhai bus that runs once an hour from Miyazu Station or Tenkyo Station, and taking the "Igen Pujin Line" to the "Igen" bus stop. It is recommended to play with Tenkyo Station (Tenkyo Station is introduced on my homepage, you can use a little homepage to check it out). After enjoying Tenkyo Station, take a B taxi to Igen, rent a bicycle for sightseeing and inspection, ride along the coastline, take photos, check in at the most beautiful Kaku Prefectural Hall, and check in at Igen. Fish Harbor Observation Deck, then return the car to the office, and then take a bus from Egan Station to "Egan Bay Meguro. Sunrise" Station to feed the seagulls by boat. On the 24th of the eighth month, the Igen Fireworks Festival will take place at the Tagami Mountain parking lot in Igen cho. If we catch this evening, we can still watch the fireworks festival by the seaside, which would be so beautiful. Egan Tourist Inspection Office: The interior provides tourist information and offers free bicycle rental. The second floor is a restaurant that sells seafood bowls and seafood dishes. The most dreamy small fishing village in Japan. About 1 hour.

#July Travel Support Event Introducing Gero-Suimeikan, located 2 hours from Nagoya! This is a traditional ryokan that is one of the oldest in Japan. In addition to the large main bath, you can enjoy an open-air bath and a panoramic bath, and you can also use the hot spring water in the bathtub of each guest room. There is also a private bath for a fee for those who want to enjoy the hot spring with their family. I personally used the Hinoki bath and it was so satisfying! There are also various auxiliary facilities such as a cafe, Chinese restaurant, bar, karaoke, and a store, and if you look at the ducks and carp in the large garden and pond, it is not enough to spend a day there. It is also fun to look around the cafes and stores that commercialize the frog character, the symbol of Gero Onsen! The only regret is that the surrounding stores tend to close early, so I recommend going around the neighborhood early in the morning. I also recommend the souvenirs sold at the store inside Suimeikan. Among them, the most recommended is the bath salts that you can use to enjoy the hot spring water even after returning home! - It's a 5-minute walk from Gero Station. You can take the train from Nagoya Station to Gero Station, but if that's too much of a hassle, try taking the shuttle bus for a round trip of 4,500 yen! - I recommend ordering breakfast for meals, and I also recommend using a nearby restaurant for lunch and dinner. There aren't many around, but there are delicious restaurants, such as Nagoya's famous eel rice bowl and a highly rated tempura soba restaurant. - (Koreans only) There are Korean staff, so if you have trouble communicating, you can ask for help.

I went to Gero Onsen, one of the three most famous hot springs in Japan! This time I stayed at "Serene Miyako" ♨︎, a hideaway with 19 rooms in total😊 I stayed in a detached room with an open-air bath in the guest room✨ The water of Gero Onsen was smooth to the touch and elastic, warming me from the core of my body. It was great to be able to enjoy the Gero hot springs to my heart's content in my room♪ The lovely room, reminiscent of Taisho Romanticism, was also great! 📍Access 2505 Mori, Gero City, Gifu Prefecture #HotSpring #WinterTrip #GeroOnsen #Gero

Nestled in the charming town of Gero Onsen, Mutsumikan stands as a haven of serenity and indulgence. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by its traditional Japanese charm and warm hospitality. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the gastronomic journey presented through the Kaiseki dinner. The exquisite spread showcased the culinary artistry of the Mutsumikan chefs, and the pièce de résistance was undoubtedly the succulent Wagyu beef. As night fell, we made our way to the hot spring, anticipating a relaxing and rejuvenating soak. To our delight, we discovered that we were the only ones present, granting us the luxury of undisturbed privacy. The therapeutic waters worked their magic, melting away our stress and leaving us refreshed and invigorated. Staying at Mutsumikan in Gero Onsen was a truly unforgettable experience. The fusion of exceptional cuisine, hot spring, and genuine hospitality created a sanctuary of relaxation and luxury. If you seek a retreat that combines cultural immersion, exquisite dining, and tranquility, look no further than Mutsumikan. #summervacation #tripblazers #foodie #urbanexplorer #mytripvlog #passionpassport #japan

Yunoshimakan Hotel is located in Gero City, Gifu Prefecture. It is an old 5-star hotel. This hotel was also once a hotel where the Japanese royal family stayed. The hotel is located on a hill, but don't worry about transportation because there is a shuttle service from JR Station every now and then. The staff will send an email to inform you of the available times before your trip. On the way back, they will drop you off at the train station as usual. I chose to book a room with an outdoor bath and got a very private room. The room is quite spacious. It has a bit of a mystical feeling because the hotel is quite old, but overall it is clean. Dinner is served in the room as a full course. The Hida beef is very delicious. The sashimi is fresh and everything is delicious. #Ryokan #Japan #Onsen

"Gero Pudding" is a taste that brings back memories of Gero Onsen, Gifu. The goal is to get the character "frog". Since "Gero" → "Vomit" → "Vomit Gero🐸", Gero seems to be full of frog characters. A pudding that pursues the taste of the old days. A wide variety of puddings are available, from simple puddings to "Melon Soda", "Retro", "Matcha" and "Coffee Jelly". This time, I had "Gero Pudding Soft", which is pudding topped with soft serve ice cream. I ate it in the eat-in area. The eat-in space is also interesting. It is modeled after "Gero Onsen", and has a retro bathhouse feel. There are even ducks lined up in the luggage compartment. It's a store that looks like it will attract photo enthusiasts!

#Japanese Hotel This is one of the stops on the Central Japan trip ~ Gero Onsen This time I stayed at Suimeikan Although we live in a firewood house, the price is not cheap. Maybe it's the peak season. The room is not too big (smaller than expected 🤣🤣) And they are all quite old, probably because I picked a cheap house 😅 But the surrounding environment is very good The hot spring is also comfortable Breakfast is also delicious After leaving, we walked around Comfortable and happy

The hotel is called Kusakabe Almeria in Gero Onsen 🏨 You move around the hotel by cable car. (No elevators.) Very rare!! There are many rooms, and women can choose the color of their yukata for the hotel for free. The only disappointment was that there was a stink bug in the room 😂 But other than that it was a very nice hotel 💯 I highly recommend it 🙆🏻‍♀️

A Gero Pudding shop in Gero Onsen town 🍮 It was very popular and crowded 💯 I was able to use the nationwide travel support coupon!

This is the second time I have stayed at Gero Onsen Ogawaya. Ogawaya is a large, established hotel. Every time I stay at the Yuraji Annex. Yuraji Annex seems to be a annex built later on the hotel. The facilities in the room are very new, with a terrace and a river view. When staying at Ogawaya Yuraji Annex, you can enjoy an old-style Japanese bath or stay in a new-style hotel room. The hotel is close to Gero Station, about a ten-minute walk away. You can also contact the hotel to arrange a shuttle bus. There is also free parking for self-driving tourists. #See the Earth in an instant

Gero, located south of Hida Takayama and in the center of Gifu Prefecture, is rich in natural resources, and Gero Onsen is one of the three most famous hot springs in Japan. Because of its location, there are many activities to do in Gero, such as visiting the Gassho Village in Gero Onsen, exploring the forest, or visiting waterfalls, so it is recommended that everyone stay in Gero for a night. This time we chose to stay at the Wangchuan Hotel. 📍 190-1 Yunoshima, Gero City, Gifu Prefecture 🚈 Take the JR Takayama Main Line, about 1 hour and 40 minutes and 60 minutes from Nagoya or Gifu 🏘 There are 9 different rooms to choose from, and the most expensive one can enjoy a private open-air hot spring bath in the room ♨️ The water quality of Gero Onsen is weakly alkaline and is called "Beauty Hot Spring". It has the effects of restoring fatigue, relieving rheumatism, recovering from illness and beauty. The hotel has separate bathing areas for men and women, and private bathhouses can also be rented. There is also a foot bath in the garden where you can soak your feet while enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Hida mountains. 🍱 Japanese food is provided, and you can enjoy Hida beef for an extra fee "Bochuankan" is not a highly rated hotel, but there are many things to do in Gero City, such as strolling around Gero Onsen Street and taking a free foot bath; visiting "Kaeru Shrine (Frog Shrine)"; or visiting Gero's Konaga Village, so you don't have to spend too much on the hotel, and the hotel's open-air hot spring is also very comfortable, and the food is also good. It can be said to be a hotel with a very high cost performance. #Overseas Travel #Japan #Gifu #Gero #Countryside Series #Hot Springs #One Night Two Meals #See the Earth in an Instant #Gassho Village #japan

I went to Hotel Kusakabe Almeria in Gero Onsen, Gifu Prefecture, one of the three most famous hot springs in Japan! The selling points of this hotel are the spacious rooms, the natural Gero hot spring with a spectacular open-air bath, and the luxurious buffet. They provide free transportation from Gero Station at any time. This time, I stayed in the cheapest room, which cost about 12,000 yen including two meals. There are several large public baths, and the open-air bath with a panoramic view of the town of Gero was especially amazing. The rooms are also quite spacious. Almost too spacious for one person. There is a luxurious buffet for breakfast and dinner. The variety is very wide and the quality is high. The freshly made roast beef and steak, sushi and sashimi are also good.
