Discover the most picturesque places in Japan on this day trip from Nagoya to the historic villages of Takayama and Shirakawago.
Takayama and Shirakawago Day Trip
At 7:50 am we'll meet at the Esca underground shopping centre in Nagoya and set off on our trip to discover two Japanese towns: Takayama and Shirakawago.
After a two-hour bus ride, we'll arrive in Takayama, a small town nestled in the Hida mountain range. We'll walk through Sanmachi Suji, the old town, and admire the typical wooden houses and temples hidden in its streets. Did you know Sarubobo dolls are from this town? Find out what this typical amulet is used for! Later, we'll stop at a local restaurant to enjoy a traditional Japanese meal.
After two hours in Takayama, we'll head to our next destination: Shirakawago, a UNESCO World Heritage Town. When we arrive, we'll explore its streets and marvel at the historic triangular buildings with thatched roofs.
At the end of the trip, we'll return to Nagoya and arrive at the starting point by 7:30 pm.
