Takayama

A place where tradition and nature coexist

Takayama is a historical mountain village located in the Hida region of Japan. The city is a scenic backdrop for plenty of sightseeing and fun activities. If you love history, why not visit the famous Gassho-Zukuri farm houses, which have roofs shaped like praying hands, or one of Japan's most famous local folk art morning markets? Nature lovers can hike through the Japanese Alps or soak in the local hot springs while admiring the view.
