Hida-Takayama- located between the deep mountains of Gifu Prefecture, remarkably untouched by time. The homes of the merchants and sake brewers will take you a couple of
centuries into the past. Reminisce the center of the old town with its old buildings and quaint atmosphere.
Sanno-machi Suji area has narrow streets, lined with stores selling traditional
hardware, craftsmen's workshops, Japanese style inns and breweries. This part
of town is why Takayama gets its name as Little Kyoto. You will also find at
the Hida folk Village, the well-preserved traditional mountain farming villages
of thatch-roof houses. The Takayama festival held in spring and fall is known as one of the most beautiful
festivals of Japan.
