商品説明
Experience the essence of Japan in two unforgettable days!
Takayama Festival As the festival marks the arrival of spring in the Hida mountains, the city is filled with a bright and celebratory energy. The "Gojyo-hoko" parade, featuring hundreds of people in traditional Edo-period costumes, feels like a living history scroll coming to life.
The highlight of the festival is the parade of "Yatai" (festival floats), which are masterpieces of craftsmanship.
In 1960, the floats themselves were designated as National Important Tangible Folk Cultural Properties. Later, in 2016, they were inscribed as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage, gaining global recognition as a world treasure.
Shirakawa-go: A Living World Heritage Site Registered as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1995, Shirakawa-go holds a profound distinction from many other historical monuments.
A Place Where Life Breathes: Unlike a static museum, this is a living village where residents continue their daily lives, tending to their fields and preserving their traditions. Visitors are often deeply moved to find that "everyday life" itself is what is being protected as a world heritage.
Shirakawa-go is famous for its special houses called "Gassho-zukuri." The Roofs: They have very steep, thatched roofs. These roofs are strong enough to hold heavy winter snow.
No Nails: Surprisingly, these houses were built without using any nails. They were made using only wood and rope.
Craftsmanship: It is a great example of traditional Japanese building skills.
Hanamomo no Sato: The Peach Blossom Village What is Hanamomo? Unlike regular peach trees grown for fruit, Hanamomo are special peach trees grown for their beautiful flowers.
Three Beautiful Colors: The most amazing part is seeing red, white, and pink flowers blooming at the same time. The scenery is colorful and beautiful.
A "Floral Paradise": This area is often called "Togenkyo," which means a hidden floral paradise. It is one of the most popular spots in Japan to enjoy the beauty of spring.
Magome-juku: A Historic Post Town A Key Stop on the Nakasendo: Magome was once a very important stop along the Nakasendo, a famous mountain road that connected Edo (Tokyo) and Kyoto.
Unique Beauty: The town has a special beauty and a peaceful, nostalgic atmosphere that you won't find anywhere else.
Walk through History: As you walk along the stone-paved streets, you will feel as if you have stepped back into the Japan of the past.
