🏯 Weekend Stroll in Mino, Gifu

#hellohalloween

Step back in time with a leisurely walk through Mino, a charming town in Gifu known for its beautifully preserved Edo-period streets and traditional paper craft culture. Start your journey at Gujo Hachiman Station, a quaint wooden station that sets the nostalgic tone for the day. From there, wander through the peaceful streets lined with classic wooden houses and serene waterways.

The highlight of the day was visiting the Former Imai Residence (旧今井家住宅) — a stunning example of traditional merchant architecture. Inside, you’ll find beautifully maintained tatami rooms, old wooden beams, and exhibits showcasing the region’s rich history and craftsmanship. The adjoining Mino History Museum is also worth a visit for a deeper understanding of the town’s heritage.

It’s the kind of place where time slows down — perfect for those who love culture, architecture, and quiet discovery.
