[Time travel to the Edo period] A historical walk through Takayama's old town
Mimachisuji in Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture, is a charming town that makes you feel like you've traveled back in time to the Edo period. Black-painted wooden buildings line the streets, along with sake breweries, Japanese sweets shops, and craft shops. 🍶🍡
At Takayama Jinya, you can visit the building of an actual government office that was in use, making it a must-see spot for history lovers. The morning market is also famous, and it's fun just to walk around and look at the local vegetables and folk crafts. ♪
When you actually walk around, it's a place that feels nostalgic and calms the soul. It's recommended for a leisurely stroll with your partner or for taking photos by yourself. 📷
Access is about a 10-minute walk from JR Takayama Station. It's about 2.5 hours by train from Nagoya, so it's perfect for a day trip!
