🏯 A Rainy Day Trip Through Takayama Alleyways

#JapanGuide

📍 Takayama · Gifu, Japan

⸻

① A Quiet Mountain Village

Takayama (高山), a small town located two hours from Nagoya.
Standing on a bridge over the Miyagawa River, with raindrops quietly flowing,
I felt as if time had stood still for a moment.

② Tradition and Cuteness Coexist 🐰☕
• Shop for Japanese-style teacups and desserts at Snoopy CHA-YA
• Character sweets and rugs from **Miffy Oyatsudo** are bursting with cuteness
• Hidden souvenir shops in every alley are overflowing with Hida beef magnets, folk crafts, and sake cups

⸻

③ Takayama's Local Highlights 🍶
• Sample local sake at the Hida Sake Tasting Bar (from 100 yen per glass)
• The Sanmachi district, with its traditional houses, is a must-see on foot
• The red bridge **Nakabashi** is a photogenic spot 📸

④ Travel Tips ✈️

🚄 Approximately 2 hours from Nagoya by JR Hida Limited Express 20 minutes
☔ Raincoats are recommended instead of umbrellas on rainy days (the streets are narrow and cobblestoned).
🍡 Street snacks: Mitarashi dango, Hida beef skewers, green tea soft serve

⸻

A quiet Japanese mountain village,
where the smell of the earth and the sound of rain soothe your soul. 🌧️
