Recommended in conjunction with Shirakawago and Takayama!
Hida Furukawa is a serene town located in the Hida region of Gifu Prefecture in central Honshu. While it is not as well-known as the popular rural village of Shirakawago or Takayama, the central city of the Hida region, Hida Furukawa still retains traditional streetscapes and pastoral landscapes, making it a town worth exploring at a leisurely pace.
In recent times, Hida Furukawa has been steadily gaining popularity, and it even became a setting for the animated film “Your Name.” On this tour, you’ll join an English-speaking local guide for a bicycle ride through the town, discovering the Japanese lifestyle and culture preserved here.
The tour starts at 2 PM and concludes around 5:30 PM, just as the rural scenery is at its most beautiful in the evening light. This tour is recommended for those who want to explore beyond the more touristy Shirakawago and Takayama, and truly immerse themselves in the serene beauty of rural Japan.
