A small village surrounded by mountainsβ¨
Who understands! Shirakawa-go has fulfilled all my fantasies. πΏπ Fellow travelers, I can't believe there are still people who don't know about Shirakawa-go! It's truly breathtaking π π Transportation: If you're starting from Nagoya, you can first take the JR train to Takayama Station, then transfer to a bus. πΏπ The whole journey takes about 2.5 to 3 hours. If you're starting from Kanazawa, take the Hokuriku Shinkansen to Kanazawa, then transfer to the Nohi Bus. It'll take you about 1.5 hours to get there. ππ π Attractions: Gassho-zukuri Village: The largest Gassho-zukuri village in Japan, with over 100 Gassho-style houses scattered beautifully. The houses are all oriented in the same direction to help the snow melt better. It's incredibly impressive! π‘ πΏπ Shirakawa-go Viewpoint: If you want to overlook the entire village, this spot is a must-see! From up high, the village is surrounded by tranquility and beauty. It's a kind of beauty that can't be described in words. π #Japan πΏπ
