Departing from Nagoya, take a scenic countryside tour to Takayama, also known as the Little Kyoto of Gifu Prefecture. Admire centuries‑old farmhouses in the charming village of Shirakawa‑go.

Shirakawa‑go and the neighbouring Gokayama region are located along the Shogawa River Valley in a remote mountainous area stretching from Gifu to Toyama Prefecture.

"Gassho‑zukuri" means "built like hands in prayer", as the steep thatched roofs of the farmhouses resemble the hands of Buddhist monks joined in prayer.

Takayama is a city located in the Hida mountainous region of Gifu Prefecture. To distinguish it from other places called Takayama, the city is also commonly known as Hida Takayama.
