Itinéraire
1
Temple Hida Kokubunji
Not just another temple. But one of many whose historical ties to the Shogunate are little known to many. Beyond the history, there's that bit of Japanese New Year and a natural work of art here.
5 minutes
2
Asahimachi
If dining and drinking is part of your journey to discover Japan, then this (not so) little corner of hideaway bars, pubs and eateries is where I'll share my favourites with you
0 minute
3
Daimasa
Arriving at Japan's countryside without interacting with its locals and understanding its obsession with community bonds = not having visited. Here at one of the 'blink & you'll miss' buildings is a community led project for you and for me.

Marché matinal de Hida-Takayama Miyagawa
We are not fans of mass tourism nor of 'checklist tourism', and sadly this place has become just that. However, no matter, we grab the neck of this 'monster', dig up its truest nature to share with you, and see a different side to this bazaar.
0 minute
5
Fukutaro
Off the main trail of tourism, this corner street food stall is our favourite. And how could we not share our favourite street food with you.
5 minutes
6
Sanctuaire Sakurayama Hachimangu
There are Shrines. And there is Sakurayama Hachimangu. Enshrined here is a God of War, well-loved by the local community for reasons beyond 'War'. We find out here what's their deal with this charming site.
10 minutes
7
Takayama City Main Library (Kanshōkan)
If you are a fan of architecture just like me, you are gonna like this library. Setting my eyes on it for the first time, I instantly knew why I loved it, and you'd have to hear it from me firsthand to understand why ; p
2 minutes
8
Musée d'histoire et d'art de Takayama
Any Otakus for Museums out here?
Ok, I am not one. Yet, this is a gem, and may I add a hidden gem. Besides history and heritage here, the former brewery converted into a Museum is done up so well, you'll do well to listen in to my commentary ; p
8 minutes
9
The old townscape of Hidatakayama Sanmachi Historic District
The last Touristic bastion we will "cover" on this walk.
To be honest, we don't cover it, we slip through it and point out a couple of oft-forgotten sights in Japanese old towns.

Jinya-Mae Morning Market
Some say this market is worth a miss; while I say Locals adore & cherish it with all their hearts. You wanna know why?
Join our walk and end it here with us.
