Old town is gorgeous, just do NOT go on weekends. It is killing the joy and beauty.

So disappointed:(, spent so much effort but bad weather so all the festival events have been cancelled today. Super sad...

Can you visit the onsen with tattoos or are all those onsen very traditional??

This was a very good video. It was informative without being too long or boring. Great job! One thing I was puzzled or confused with, so I'm hoping you can clarify for me, is you mentioned Shirakawago. I had read that Shirakawago was a 50 minute bus ride north of Takayama, so to me it was a separate town and not part of Takayama. Since I'm planning my first trip to Japan, I may be confused, so I'm hoping you can clarify this. Appreciate your help. Thanks, Ron

Thank you, what a great summary 🥰 now I want to stay much longer

I wanna stay in a nice onsen at the mountain? Is there any nice accommodation

Brilliant vid, thank you sooo much! 🤗

ciao mi chiamo vito e sono italiano
sognando un giorno di andare prima o poi in giappone mi godo i tuoi video che sono sempre fantastici e molto utili , volevo chiederti come realizzi la parte animata delle presentazione video mappa personaggi e tutto il resto?

Excellent video, but please, turn the music down/off!!

Thank you! I'm planning to go to Shirakawago next week! :)

Are all the locations featured in this video accessable in January or does the snow stop trains and buses running?

Hi I am from Australia. Hoping to visit in November. Your video was fantastic, How to book a overnight stay in Shirakawago Wade - House please. I am fascinated. Please let me know. Thank you Best Regards Gamini

Hyoukaaa

Takayama - Kanazawa pirang centi meter?

タカヤマ…は小京都なのね…飛騨高山みだらしだんこが凄く美味しいよ…(◕ᴗ◕✿)(✿^‿^)🧚🌟🎀

Is takayama the largest city by area in japan. But in google they show tokyo sapporo nagoya osaka.

Number 5. this is like watchmojo but japan

Most of this stuff was already on my to-do list so I guess I was on the right track XD

Still a dream for me to grow up and settle here and have a life with peace..😌🌳🦋

I wish i had time to go there 😭

I'm still learning Japanese so that I can comfortably visit this place and witness the real life locations of the anime 'Kimi no Nawa' , after watching this video I'm even more excited, I hope I get done learning basic Japanese as soon as possible....Hida aka Itomori, Shane is cominggggggg🙂

👍🏻

Hii

Awesome video! Good work!

The Showa Museum in Takayama is one of the coolest museums I’ve been to. The downstairs is set up like a street full of shops from various parts of the Showa era with all kinds of period stuff around. Upstairs has a neat setup of a school room and a bunch of posters of famous enka singers. There’s also a functioning jukebox at the bottom of the stairs you can drop a few yen into and blast some Misora Hibari to set the mood.

what's the difference between Gero Onsen and Okuhida Onsen? Which one should I go to if I only have time to go 1? How about Hirugami Onsen?

Great video!

Thank you for this. it's very informative. Will definitely go back there to visit the onsen and Shirakawa go.

今年のGWに飛騨高山行ってきたけどホントに良かった。飛騨牛はもちろん飛騨限定の地酒にも唸らされた。
天候に恵まれたお陰で北アルプスの絶景を堪能できたし、温泉も良かった。また行きたいと思える数少ない名所。

the video is beautiful, however the background music is higher, than the spoken word which is hard to understand

Japan!!!

It seems beautiful♡ thank you!

Super helpful thanks so much!

Excellent video. Many thanks

A friend recommended Hida Great Limestone caves

Takayama is beautiful and welcoming!

高山出身の人👍

Takayama is so dreamy! Being surrounded with mountains in a small town is like being in an anime. I made a video about other things to do in Takayama and there's things not mentioned in this video!

hey don.t call me so many time.yes,my name is TAKAYAMA.T

I've been to Takayama and Shirakawa-go while doing a round-trip around Japan. It's absolutely beautiful.

TAKAYAMA IS SO BEAUTIFUL OMG

Visited Takayama back in 1982 and fortunate to see it much quieter back then compared to today

I consider the hida beef a must!! When we went to Takayama we had no idea Hida beef was a thing and tried some skewers from a small establishment...OMFG, they were DELICIOUS, top beef I had even eaten. Later we found out these were A5 grade beef, just like Kobe beef. And proceeded to eat more and more meat in town 🤤🤤 We also had medium raw sirloin sushi and it was amazing 👌

This was a great video. Very informative. Thank you

I'm a Japanese living in Tokyo.
I really like the old town of Takayama and I go there from Tokyo every summer.
In the old town, you can compare sake and drink delicious coffee and eat Hida beef (飛騨牛), one of the most delicious meats in Japan.


If you like the old culture of Japan, delicious foods or beautiful nature, I recommend visiting Takayama!

Takayama is gorgeous the photos I got there are unreal.
