National TreasureMatsumoto Castle
Matsumoto Castle is the oldest remaining castle in Japan with a five-tiered, six-story donjon (designated as a National Treasure). With the faraway Japan Alps rising in the background, the castle provides spectacular views.
Shinhotaka Ropeway
The Shinhotaka Ropeway is located in Japan's Northern Alps and is the only double-decker ropeway in Japan where you can enjoy a spectacular view 2,000 meters above sea level. The 360-degree panoramic view from the top of the mountain holds a two-star rating in the Michelin Green Guide Japan. The beauty of the mountain changes with the seasons and offers enjoyment year-round.
Hidatakayama
This area features an old-time streetscape that retains vestiges of the Edo Period as well as historical buildings such as Takayama Jin’ya. Another attraction is the area’s easy access from Nagoya by express train, with no need to change lines.
World HeritageShirakawago
This village—still inhabited today—is famous for its many (around 100) large and small houses built in the gassho-style (a uniquely Japanese construction style featuring steeply slanting thatched roofs that meet at a high peak) that have been preserved.
World HeritageGokayama
Gokayama is located in a region with heavy snowfall, with snow piling up 2–3 meters in winter. Consequently, the gassho-style houses in this village are characterized by their very steep slanting roofs (steeper than those in Shirakawa-go) which form almost equilateral triangles.
