Takayama | Miyagawa Green Space and Old Town Jinya Walking Tour - A One-Day Trip

Celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival holiday by heading to Japan's Hokuriku region. The second city on the itinerary is Takayama in Gifu Prefecture, where you can enjoy a one-day walking tour.

Takayama feels somewhat like Kyoto!
It has Miyagawa, reminiscent of Kamo River, and lush green spaces.
A blend of natural beauty and cultural artistry.
Traditional jinya townhouses and temples.
And don't forget the incredibly delicious Hida Wagyu beef!

Must-try restaurants:
✓ Le Midi French Steakhouse - 5A Wagyu sirloin (Highly recommended! Ever tried steak so tender it melts in your mouth?)
✓ Hsiz Coffee - First-row Miyagawa river view. A must-visit for hipsters!
✓ Ebisu Handmade Soba - Springy noodles and even bouncier shrimp.

Quick sightseeing stops:
✓ Sakurayama Hachimangu Shrine
✓ Higashiyama Walking Trail
✓ Miyagawa & Takayama Old Town
✓ Takayama City Memorial Hall

Accommodation:
