Embark on an unforgettable 1-day trip from Nagoya to explore the serene beauty of Shirakawa-go Village and the historic charm of Takayama. Starting in the vibrant metropolis of Nagoya, you’ll quickly leave the city behind and journey into the heart of Japan’s countryside. In Shirakawa-go, a UNESCO World Heritage site, you’ll be enchanted by the iconic gassho-zukuri farmhouses, nestled in the picturesque mountains. These traditional homes, with their steep thatched roofs, offer a rare glimpse into rural Japan’s history, especially against the backdrop of changing seasons, whether it’s the lush green of summer or the snow-covered village in winter. From Shirakawa-go, head to Takayama, where the preserved streets of the Sanmachi Suji district transport you back to the Edo period. Stroll through narrow lanes lined with traditional merchant houses, visit sake breweries, and experience the warmth of a town that has managed to retain its old-world charm.
