      🇺🇸: Takayama is a really cute city, i especially liked the old town. The architectural style is from the edo period and is just beautiful.😍
      For a shopping day also very nice, especially for sake tasting is it great! as you can see there are toris and shrines everywhere⛩️
      For dinner we went to the famous grill restaurant (everybody knows it) and ate the best beef i every had in my life. Its called Hida Beef! Its like Kobe/Wagyu beef. Really tender and melts on the tongue😍 the taste is incredible!! You really have to try this when you visit Japan, its worth it i promise.🇯🇵
      First you dip the beef in raw eggs and then in the sauce. I know it sounds weird but is soooo good!😍

      The next day eat first breakfast. Of course also rice and fish hahaha
      And then we visit a market in the near, was really cute. There i bought a 55g glass of Honey for 1000¥ (thats 7,17dollar)

      December 2, 2023 in Japan ⋅ ⛅ 6 °C

      Day 16

      Takayama

      April 9 in Japan ⋅ ☁️ 6 °C

      After a leisurely start we walked from the hotel to the coach station next door to catch a bus to Takayama.

      We left Kanazawa at around 11am and the coach had one stop at Shirakawa, a small place known for it's 'A' houses! It was pouring with rain so I stayed on the bus while Ed took a pic!

      The bus continued on and we arrived on time at Takayama just before 1.30pm. the rain had stopped but it was definitely a lot colder. Takayama is in the Japanese Alps and the wind was also biting.

      We walked the short distance to our hotel and left our bags before walking back into the centre of town. Takayama is one of the smaller places that we have visited and doesn't have the high rise buildings of larger cities.

      We stopped at a small place for some food and had a skewer of the local Hida beef along with some Takoyaki and Maitake mushrooms in a soy sauce.

      After food we walked through the pretty twin streets and to an exhibition of the Yatai floats. There are about 23 in total dotted around the town and half are used at a spring festival with the other half being used in autumn, paraded through the streets.

      Next we a visit to Sakurayama Hachimangu Shrine, nestled in the hillside. There was also an exhibition of models of the local shrines, built in intricate detail.

      We spent some more time walking through the streets, many of which seemed closed, before stopping at a tiny bar where Ed had a hot sake and I had a sake caiprihiani cocktail!

      On the way back to the hotel we finally found a bustling street with some craft shops on. Back at the hotel we grabbed another layer before having our welcome drink and then walking back into town for some food. All of the restaurants are small and everywhere seemed full so it took us a while, and a stop at a craft beer place before we eventually found somewhere to eat and had chicken skewers (yakitori) song with fried chicken.

      We tried to find a couple of bars that were in the Right Guide, without success so walked back to the hotel for cards in the rooftop bar at the hotel. (It got pretty busy with visitors playing the piano, often badly!)      Read more

      נפרדים מTakayama

      May 8 in Japan ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C

      היום בילינו את הבוקר חוקרים חלק נוסף בעיר Takayama.
      העיר פשוט מקסימה, יפן מהספרים....יש שוקים ובתים ישנים, המון מקדשים ופרחים בכל כיוון. והכל נקי. לא נקי...מבריק!
      היום אכלנו בסגנון מערבי...בכל זאת קצת התגעגענו. אז פתחנו במאפיה צרפתית, לנשנוש טעמנו עוגיות סופר יקרות אבל טעימות בהתאם ובצהריים אכלנו במסעדה הודית מצוינת. אל דאגה גם סושי אכלנו בין לבין...רק בגלל שאפשר 😎 והיינו חייבים לאכול כמה שיפודי Hida beef כי זה טעים....וכי אנחנו עוזבים את האזור.

      באמצע היום עשינו מעבר לKanazawa, נסיעה של שעתיים והגענו לעיר של חצי מליון איש.
      מבלים ערב במלון.      Read more

      Takayama

      November 4, 2019 in Japan ⋅ ⛅ 11 °C

      Takayama ist eine Stadt in den japanischen Alpen, welche man recht gut als Startpunkt für Tagesausflüge nehmen kann.
      Jedoch war ich hier nur eine Nacht bevor es weiter in die Berge in ein Ryokan ging.
      Die Stadt hat eine schöne Altstadt, morgends einen Markt und ein Open Air Museum, in dem es ein altes japanisches Dorf gibt.      Read more

      An Autumn Day in Takayama

      November 2, 2023 in Japan ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

      This morning we walked to the markets which are held along the riverside. Then we returned to the hotel to get the bicycles which we had organised to borrow. (For some reason we were told 'secret' - perhaps not enough bikes for everyone). We rode about 4km to Hida Folk Village which has more than thirty preserved buildings from around the region including thatched and shingled roof houses, a water mill and shrines surrounding a lovely pond. There was plenty of colourful autumn foliage. After a lunch stop at 7/11 we explored more of Takayama by bike stopping at other places of interest including various temples, shrines and ancient grave sites. We returned the bikes and rested for a while before heading out for a walk. We ended up at the same Nepalese restaurant for dinner as last night.Read more

      Day 4

      Onward to Takayama

      November 1, 2023 in Japan ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

      We joined the morning rush hour, with our luggage, and squeezed on to the trains from Ryogoku station to Tokyo station to catch the Shinkansen (bullet train) to Toyama. We had reserved seats so we lined up, waited for the cleaning crew to finish and pay their respects to the waiting passengers, and then boarded. The trip took about 2 hours. We had lunch at Toyama but decided not to venture too far from the station so we wouldn't miss the Hida express train to Takayama. With larger windows and a window seat we enjoyed the picturesque journey which followed the river valley and passed some small towns, rice paddies, dams, and orchards. We arrived at about 3pm and walked to our hotel to check in. After making some bus and train reservations we wandered around Takayama which has some lovely old streets, buildings and interesting shops. We had a delicious dinner at a Nepalese restaurant we had discovered earlier.Read more

      Day 9

      Takayama

      September 17, 2023 in Japan ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C

      We left Hakone by bus to Odawara Station, a Shinkansen to Nagoya, and a local express train for 150 minutes to Takayama situated at 573m the other side of the watershed in the Hida Mountains and surrounded by the Southern Alps at 3000m.
      Most Japanese obey the instruction not to walk up or down the escalators at stations.
      After checking-in at the ryokan, we went to Hida No Sato Open-Air Folk Museum where old buildings had been relocated around a lake which had carp.
      We sat on the floor for dinner at the ryokan where Hida beef was cooked in a heated pot. After dinner, we played various card games but mainly pontoon (21) with small coins to make it more interesting.
      There was an onsen at the ryokan as at a number of the accommodations on the holiday. Some were from hot springs and had minerals whereas others were just hot water. A few places had hot baths with silver foil on top to keep the water warm.      Read more

      September 25, 2023 in Japan ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C

      Bei der Besichtigung dieser alten Holzhäuser, welche in der Edo-Epoche Residenz und Verwaltungsgebäude des Statthalters von Takayama waren, gefiel uns vor allem der sehr schöne japanische Garten. Dass Holzhäuser aus dem 17. Jahrhundert die Zeiten so gut überstanden haben, erstaunte uns zwar aber beeindruckend ist die Anlage für weitgereiste Europäer wie uns eher nicht.Read more
