Walk around the old townscape of Takayama, the most recommended sightseeing spot in Hida Takayama. No matter what time you visit, it's always full of tourists. In the old townscape, irrigation canals flow under the eaves with trellised latticework, "sakebayashi" made of cedar leaves, which is also said to be a signboard, hangs down at sake breweries, and the large doors of townhouses and the noren curtains of long-established stores line the eaves.

Visit the Gassho-zukuri Village, which is registered as a World Heritage Site, and is known for its large number of over 100 Gassho-zukuri buildings remaining, and where people still live there.
