Gifu Hidden Gems

Berceau du village aux toits de chaume de Shirakawa-go (Patrimoine mondial) et de la « petite Kyoto » de Takayama. Les rues de marchands de l'ère Edo, le marché matinal, le bœuf de Hida et les maisons gassho-zukuri illuminées en hiver composent le Japon rural le plus authentique.

8 spots

Le Japon de montagne sous son jour le plus photogénique : fermes aux toits de chaume, vieux quartier d'époque Edo à Takayama et villages riverains où l'on pêche encore au cormoran.

Climat et meilleure saison

Hida, au nord, est froid et enneigé ; la plaine sud est chaude et humide. D'avril à mai et d'octobre à novembre sont les mois idéaux.
