This historic market has been in operation since the Edo period and still retains its traditional market atmosphere. The market mainly sells fresh local fruits and vegetables, pickles, miso, and other Hida specialties. There are plenty of breakfast options, including freshly grilled egg whites, handmade rice balls, and Hida beef. Seasonal fruits and agricultural products are available throughout the year, with Hida apples being particularly recommended in winter.

It is recommended to visit between 7-8 AM to enjoy the freshness of the morning market and avoid the busiest tourist crowds. Be sure to dress warmly in winter, as many stalls are outdoors ❄️

Not at all! We went to the Miyagawa Morning Market by the riverside early in the morning. It's an early morning market open from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM, where you can find seasonal fruits, various Takayama snacks, souvenirs, and more. Unlike other markets, it's not crowded, and the peaceful environment made our visit very pleasant. You can buy something to eat and enjoy it slowly while watching the river. You can do this in Takayama ^_^ I highly recommend the Hida beef sushi! 🚌Transportation: 15-minute walk from Takayama Station

Miyagawa Morning Market is a morning market along the Miyagawa River. It can be reached by foot from Takayama Station in about 10 minutes. I came across a rice ball shop called Hibi Kore Koujitsu. 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

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. 🇯🇵

Hida Takayama is located in Gifu Prefecture, in Japan's central Hida region. This charming town is surrounded by mountains and is renowned for its well-preserved traditional culture and natural beauty, earning it the nickname “Little Kyoto” due to its resemblance to Kyoto's historical streets. The town’s streets are lined with traditional merchant houses and craft shops, creating a nostalgic atmosphere reminiscent of the Edo period. Hida Takayama is also famous for its local delicacy, Hida beef. Hida beef is one of Japan's most famous types of wagyu. It is renowned for its tender, juicy, and smooth texture, characterized by the even marbling of fat throughout the meat, which makes it melt in your mouth. #japan #hidatakayama #kyushu#hidabeef #takayama_japan #japanlover

Mikawa Market feels like a 100-year-old ancient market in our country. It still retains the unique culture of ancient Japan. The market is located next to the river, making the atmosphere even better. It's a pleasant walk. There are photo spots with a red bridge and a green bridge as check-in points (as the guide mentioned). Food includes beef sushi and rice crackers, which are delicious but have long queues. If you prefer shorter queues, hurry up and get there.
