#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Hida Plaza Hotel is a hotel with its own hot spring. After arriving that evening, we put our luggage away and had dinner in the banquet hall. The exquisite and diverse food was very delicious. After the meal, I took a short rest and went to the rooftop with a few friends to take a hot spring bath. The breakfast dishes are quite rich and delicious. What’s surprising is that we can even eat Hida beef, which is as famous as the three major Wagyu beefs in Japan. I really have to give a thumbs up to the accommodation and meals this time.

Hida Folk Village is a museum village that is beautiful both during the day and when illuminated at night. In the evening, when there are hardly any visitors, it offers a private atmosphere. For those traveling during the heavy snowfall in winter and facing travel disruptions, it is recommended to visit here as an alternative to Shirakawa-go. The village is easily accessible from Takayama, taking only 9 minutes by bus from Nohi Bus Station, stop number 1. The bus fare is just 100 yen per person. The entrance fee during the day is 700 yen per person, and at night, after sunset, there is a light-up event for 300 yen. The absence of crowds makes it a great place to take beautiful photos and enjoy the experience, making up for the inconvenience of being stuck in a snowstorm.

#GlobalTravel Sakurayama Hachimangu Shrine is a shrine with a long history located in Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture. The shrine has magnificent architecture and rich natural surroundings. You can enjoy the red leaves in autumn and the snowy scenery in winter is very dreamy. Next to Hachimangu Shrine is the Takayama Festival Yatai Hall, which displays the history of the Takayama Festival, one of the three major festivals in Japan. The festival is famous for its gorgeous floats and traditional performances, and still retains its Edo period appearance. When you come to the Yatai Hall, you can also enter and see the gorgeous Yatai used during the Takayama Festival. There are several exhibition areas in the hall, displaying various ritual items and historical relics, which will give you a deeper understanding of this unique cultural heritage. Whether you want to appreciate the architecture or the natural environment, it is highly recommended to add Sakurayama Hachimangu Shrine to your mountain itinerary. 📍Address: Sakurayama Hachimangu Shrine

Shinhotaka Ropeway and Snow Forest ❄️ If you have a chance to go to Takayama in winter, I would like to recommend adding a plan to go here. The snow is so fluffy 🌨️☃️ It is so beautiful. You can see the Japan Alps very clearly 🏔️ For those who want this view, I recommend checking the forecast on a day when it does not snow. The sky is clear. The ropeway has 2 stations. The first station is a normal ropeway and the second station is a 2-story ropeway, the only one in Japan. ✨🚠 The entrance fee can be bought online from the website or you can buy it at the ropeway station. Prepare warm clothes because it is very cold up there, -7 degrees. 🥶🥶 Traveling to the ropeway by private car is the easiest way. The road is easy to drive on. There is a parking lot near the ropeway station. 🚖🚘 Or if you don't rent a car, there is a bus from Takayama city to here. #TravelJapan

Shinhotaka Ropeway 🚠⛰️❄️It is the only double-decker gondola in Japan that will take us to see the scenery on top of Mount Hotaka, the Japan Alps, which is the third highest mountain in Japan. The highest point is Mount Okuhotakadake, 3,190 meters above sea level. ❄️🚠⛰️The highlight of this place is the highest level, Nishihotakaguchi Station, at 2,156 meters above sea level. In winter, Shinhotaka is full of white, like something out of a fairy tale. Whether it's the view from the gondola or the view from the mountain, it's incredibly beautiful. Every angle is beautiful. 📍 Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture, Japan 🚆 Bus Takayama - Shinhotaka 💵 Adults 3,300 yen/person #WinterTravel

♨️Hot spring location: I experienced an outdoor snow hot spring at Fukuji Onsen♨️, which was amazing. I chose the Hida Takayama route (Okuhida Onsen-go). I bought a 3-day Nohi Bus pass at Takayama Bus Terminal, which allows unlimited rides on the Takayama Bus Terminal - Shin-Hotaka Ropeway route + a round-trip ride on the Shin-Hotaka Ropeway within 3 days. 🛻Transportation: Take a bus to Fukuji Onsen Station, which is right next to the bus stop. Three private outdoor baths are open in winter, and two of them are open. You don't even need to make a reservation or pay extra for the private bath. You can go for a soak as long as there is no one in the bath. When you enter, turn the sign at the door to "occupied" and lock the door to enjoy your exclusive hot spring village, which includes both indoor and outdoor baths. ❄️Snow scenery: That night, I soaked in the hot spring in the snow, and in the morning, I watched the snow and the sunlight reflecting on the hot spring. There was a naturally formed ice wall opposite, which was very photogenic🤣 🫵Summary tips: In summary, Fukuji Onsen is a great value and worth visiting for a hot spring♨️.

Every day at Okuhida Fukuchi Onsen is filled with happiness. It happens to be snowing❄️, but the sky is clear during the day. It’s really intoxicating how beautiful the sky is. The waitresses were very enthusiastic. I chatted with the lady in charge of dinner for a long time and even received a small note from her. While walking 🚶‍♀️, I met a shop assistant who was on vacation by chance, and we visited a nearby ice waterfall together. The next day, she printed out our 📷 photo as a gift, which was touching. ♨️The hotel's hot springs are rich and diverse, with three private hot springs (both indoor and outdoor), two open-air baths (Mori no Yu: rock bath + hatchet bath) and men's and women's large baths. At night, quietly enjoy the scenery of falling snowflakes in the hot spring pool, feeling peaceful and peaceful like never before. I sincerely recommend friends who come to high mountains to choose this hot spring hotel. I believe you will have an unforgettable experience.

Hida Takayama Old Street, also known as Hida Little Kyoto, has quaint streets that give it a Kyoto feel. If you don't like Kyoto being too crowded, then Hida Takayama Old Street is a good choice for travel. When you come to Hida Takayama, you must eat Hida beef. This time we tried Hida beef skewers and Hida beef sushi. The beef was fragrant after being slightly grilled, and the beef was very tender and mouth-watering. It is indeed a must-try. Name: Hida Takayama Old Street Address: Kamichinomachi, Takayama, Gifu 506-0000 Japan #Japan #Hokuriku #Takayama #Hida Beef #2024TravelReview

The shop is decorated in a Japanese style. There are many types of rice balls on the menu. They are freshly made. I tried ordering salmon rice balls. They are seasoned rice mixed with salmon and fresh wasabi. They are made into bite-sized pieces in a Japanese style. #triptravelchina

Hida Beef is a high-quality beef from the Hida region, which is one of the most famous types of beef in Japan. The highlight of Hida Beef is the marbling that makes the meat so tender that it almost melts in your mouth. Today, let's try grilled Hida Beef, which is sold all along the way in the old town of Katayama. The meat has beautiful marbling and marbling. Grill it well and the meat is soft. Just sprinkle salt and pepper and it's delicious. #tripพาบินเที่ยวจีน

#2024TravelReview Actually, I originally wanted to take a photo with the little bear! As a result, it has been changed to only be available on weekends and special holidays. If you want to take a photo, please check the date before coming. But the adult bears in the bear ranch are also super cute~~ The ticket price is 1,100 yuan. There is a discount for those who hold a Nongfei Bus PASS, and they will also receive a box of bear biscuits to feed the bears. If you don't have enough, there are vending machines inside, 100 yen a box Each one here has a name, and it seems that their personalities are very different🤣 Some of them love to perform (and eat), and they will perform with all their might if you hold a cookie in your hand. Besides the common standing up performances, One of them will scratch and tickle, another one will perform various mysterious postures, and some will just sleep and not bother to pay attention to you😂 It was quite interesting to walk around the bear ranch. The bears here were more like pets, without the stereotyped behavior of being locked in a cage. The whole park is small and if you don't take pictures with the bears, you can finish the tour in about 40 minutes. There is also a souvenir shop at the exit, which is full of bear-related items. There is also an uncommon bear oil that is said to be able to cure anything. 📍Address: 2535-309 Okuhida Onsengo Hitoegane, Takayama, Gifu 506-1432 #dopaminetravel #OkuhidaBearFarm

#2024TravelReview The suburbs of Nagoya - Hida Takayama! The hometown of premium Japanese wagyu beef Hida Takayama is far from downtown Nagoya It takes about 3 hours by bus In order to participate in the local 📍 morning market 🚌Take the express bus from Nagoya at 7:30 🌟There will be a rest stop along the way where you can go to the toilet About 10 minutes 🌟Be sure to buy a round trip ticket! Buy your tickets early to avoid being left out and it’s cheaper 📍Morning Market sells food, agricultural products and handmade small items The whole street is not big, and I finished it in 30 minutes. 🌟You must go before 11:00. It will be closed when the time is up. Many are sold out. 📍Taste of Heaven A well-reviewed BBQ restaurant! Because this is a famous place where high-quality Wagyu beef is produced. It was still early when we went, there was no queue and not many people.. I felt a bit greasy after eating it... It is recommended to order a set meal (Or go directly to the old street to have a bite) 📍 Gaoshan Old Street District It is also recommended to come early~~ There is also Hida beef sushi sold here~~ Many are sold out after noon. You can also try the wine brewed Also look at the old buildings here The pace is quite slow, and you can actually finish the tour in half a day. I think we can arrange a half-day trip to Takayama and Hida, and then stay nearby in Kamikochi~~ Because we felt it was a bit of a waste of time to go back to downtown Nagoya in the afternoon (6 hours round trip) #Nagoya #Japan #Hida Takayama #Wagyu

: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : In addition, there are souvenir shops at each station, and there are Montbell shops at the entrance and after reaching the top, selling Shin-Takaho limited T-shirts #新熱高航車 #新熱高 #日本亞燒燒 #双重車

#2024TravelReview There is the only double-decker cable car in Japan, which takes you to the top of the mountain at an altitude of 2,156 meters. When the sky is clear, you can see the Japanese Alps in the distance. Although the outlook is not good when it snows, the scenery along the trail is very beautiful! The big trees on both sides are covered with layers of snow. Walking on the snowy road really makes you feel like you are in a fairy tale world. The observatory here also has a cute mailbox on the top of the mountain. If you want to walk on the trail when it snows, it is recommended to wear waterproof clothing and non-slip shoes. Otherwise, some places are still quite slippery and it will be very difficult to walk. Then remember to wear gloves or your fingers will be super cold~~ #Shinhotaka #Shinhotaka Cable Car #Japan Alps

Every spring, the banks of the Miyagawa River in Hida Takayama become a paradise for cherry blossom lovers. The red Naka Bridge spans the Miya River, making it an excellent cherry blossom viewing landmark. When the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the entire river bank seems to be dotted with pink petals, and the bright colors of the red bridge create a picturesque scene, like a dreamy picture of cherry blossoms and snow. 🌸 **Cherry Blossom Viewing Features** The banks of the Miyagawa River are lined with cherry blossom trees, and the scenery near the Nakabashi Bridge is particularly beautiful. Looking out from the bridge, you can see the reflections of cherry blossoms all over the river. As the breeze blows, the petals dance in the air, as if you are in a fairy tale scene.

#Natural Landscape Attraction: Hida Great Stalactite Cave (Hida Great Stalactite Cave) 📍Address: 1147, Nibugawa-cho, Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture 🕰️Business hours: 08:00–17:00 💰Average consumption: Adults (high school students and above) ¥1100 / Children (elementary and junior high school students) ¥550 💞Recommendation reason: An unexpected attraction, because I had never heard of this place before. This is a stalactite cave discovered during the Showa period. It is 800 meters long and 900 meters above sea level. It is the highest stalactite cave in Japan. Transportation tips: Take the Hirayu Shinhotaka Line bus from Takayama Nohi Bus Center. There is a bus every hour and the one-way trip takes about 30 minutes. You need to transfer to a special bus to reach the Big Stalactite Cave when you get off the bus. So when you buy your ticket at Takayama Station, you will be given a shuttle bus schedule in addition to the original bus ticket. Take the bus to the tourist information center at "Hida Big Stalactite Cave Station". The driver will arrange a time with you to take you back and forth between the bus station and the Big Stalactite Cave. When you arrive at the entrance of the stalactite cave, you will see a super huge pot. It is said that this pot was really used in the past. The pot is called "Japanese Ichisaku Nuo Pot" and is said to be related to Ryomen Sukuna in Jujutsu Kaisen. There is a gentle slope from the pot to the entrance. The entrance to the large stalactite cave is only about 160 centimeters. The temperature in the cave is only about 10 degrees all year round, and it is really gloomy and creepy in winter. I heard that you need to turn on the air conditioner in summer to ensure a suitable environment for stalactites. Apart from being wet and cold when entering the stalactite cave, the road surface inside the cave is well designed and the route is clearly marked, but it is wet all year round and there are slippery road reminders and notices everywhere. The Japanese like to give names to stalactites to make them more attractive. Some places have lighting effects, mostly blue, purple or white light. There are also some decorations to set off the atmosphere, and signs to introduce the stalactite scenery. There are also many small waterfalls, and occasionally some secret places. Usually the roads in these places are particularly rugged and narrow, and you have to climb a lot of stairs. Because the temperature inside the cave is relatively low, there is still wine stored there. The whole area is divided into three major sections. If someone is feeling unwell, they can leave in the middle. I think this design is very considerate. There is a small shrine at the exit, and then you can go back to the entrance, where there are some shops and restaurants where you can buy souvenirs. Finally, you can take the free shuttle bus back to the Hida Great Stalactite Cave Tourist Information Center.

#ItinerarySharing As one of the world's cultural heritage sites, the Hida Takayama area in Gifu Prefecture, surrounded by nature, is breathtakingly beautiful. As an ancient town representing the Hida Takayama area, Takayama Old Street still retains the old streetscape of the Edo period. The three old streets in the upper and lower towns of Takayama are called Takayama Old Streets. Among them, "Sanmachi-dori" located in Kami-San-no-machi, Kami-Nin-machi, and Kami-Ichino-machi is a famous tourist spot in Takayama. Transportation Tips: The Hida Takayama area is located in Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture. Take the Shinkansen from Tokyo or Osaka to Nagoya Station. From Nagoya, you can take the express bus to Takayama Station or the Hida Express Train to Takayama Station, and then walk to the old street. Alternatively, you can take the Nohi bus or tour bus from Takayama Station to reach the old street. The transfer information at Takayama Station is quite clear, so the transfer is not difficult. The town has many quaint old shops lining both sides of the street. The whole street is hung with old-fashioned noren curtains and other charming street scenes full of original Japanese scenery. The rows of machiya buildings retain the traditional style with lattice sliding windows (called "chugoko" in Japanese), and you can feel the strong historical atmosphere and traditional culture. There are also wine cellars, cafes renovated from old houses, and general stores. It is recommended to take a walk and carefully appreciate the beauty of the old street. Don’t miss the Takayama delicacies such as Hida beef, soy sauce dumplings, croquettes and gohei cakes. The Miyagawa Morning Market, which runs along the coastal road from Kaji Bridge to Yayoi Bridge, is a historic morning market that dates back to the Edo period. It is one of the three largest morning markets in Japan, along with the Wajima Morning Market in Ishikawa Prefecture and the Katsuura Morning Market in Chiba Prefecture. Most of them are locally picked seasonal vegetables, fruits, flowers, pickles and mochi-like processed products, as well as a few handicrafts and snack stalls. Takayama Jinya was the place where officials such as the magistrate and the county magistrate carried out government affairs during the Edo period. It consisted of an official office, residences for officials and their subordinates, and a warehouse. The deputies and county representatives dispatched from Edo all carried out government affairs in Hida at Takayama Jinya. Inside the building, there are many places worth seeing, such as the entrance reception room with the eye-catching "Aokai wave" pattern, the official office (Goyakusho), the local official office (Goyōchō), the lobby (Ōhiroma), the official residence (Yakuya), and the court (Mishirasu). The entire Takayama Old Street is usually arranged together with the Shirakawa-go itinerary. The photo was taken at the end of February when we went to Hida Takayama. It will still snow at the high latitude, and it will sometimes be sunny and sometimes rainy, so you still need to keep warm in this season.

On 10/24/24, according to the original plan, after checking out, we would take the morning bus to Nagoya, but we changed the plan to go to Miyagawa morning market and then to Takayama old town. It's good that the plan changed, otherwise it would be a big mistake. For those who like to chill, we think Miyagawa morning market is the answer. Even though there are a lot of people and some shops have to wait in line, it's worth it. For example: Coffee in a cookie cup The coffee is delicious. Eat it in a cookie cup coated with sugar. The taste is mellow. Takoyaki is also delicious. Dango is a little salty. It's chewy and sticky. I personally have to eat it while it's hot. Hida Takayama Pudding This shop has won an award. There are 2 types to choose from, hot and cold. I chose hot. It was surprisingly delicious. And along the way, there are local shops selling products alternately. For those who have eaten their fill and still have time to relax, sitting by the water is another fun way. 🇯🇵

🏖️Atmosphere/Facilities: The atmosphere was soothing and it felt like a time warp to Taisho-era Japan. The food was delicious, with elaborate mountain dishes, especially the sweetfish grilled right in front of us. We had a baby with us, but the hospitality was excellent and we didn't have any problems. However, while there was a private bath for families, it was too hot for babies. 💰Price per person: About 25,000 yen 📍Location: Address: 786 Fukuchi, Okuhida Onsenkyo, Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture Telephone number: 0578-89-0099 Business hours: 00:00-24:00 #Winter trip #Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba #Hot springs #National restaurant #0 yen trip November #Okuhida Onsen #Sweetfish #Natural sweetfish #Christmas #Private bath #Free-flowing hot spring water #Trip with children #Family trip #One year old

#Takayama Sakura #Takayama Station The main reason for choosing this place is that it is very close to JR, and the Nohi Bus is also next door, a 5-minute walk; it is a 10-minute walk to the old street, and the Ajizo Tenkoku Hida Beef Yakiniku restaurant is next door; there are also many specialty supermarkets nearby, which is very convenient. Edogawa Traditional Japanese Hot Spring Hotel, the entire hotel is tatami, so remember to roll your suitcases to the disinfection area before entering the lobby. Shoes are kept in the shoe cabinet on the first floor. Our room is 16 square meters. Although small, it has everything. It comes with two bottles of water and a shower in the bathroom, but I usually come back after soaking in the hot springs, so I don't use it. The hot spring bath is on the 13th floor, separated by men and women. In addition to the public hot spring pool, there are 3 free private baths. The "Dongnix" one is the largest and has a better environment. It also has bathing facilities and is quite private. You can just queue up by yourself and the use is limited to half an hour. The public hot springs are both indoors and outdoors, and the air outdoors is very good (a password is required to enter the women's bath). There are free popsicles (in the evening)/cold drinks (in the morning) in the lounge for you to pick up. (The hot spring is open from 5am to 10am and from 3pm to 1am) The breakfast buffet has a rich variety, tastes good and is very cost-effective. (Additional purchase 2100JPY/person) **Overall, it is still a good traditional Japanese hot spring hotel
