[Nagano] World Heritage Hida Takayama Shirakawa-go Illumination Small Group Day Tour (Optional Hotel Pickup/Drop-off in Takayama)

The Shirakawa-go Winter Illumination, open for only 4 days a year, is the most precious and limited experience of this trip! As night falls, the snow-covered Gassho-zukuri village is lit up with warm lights, and the old streets, snow scenery, and dreamy night intertwine to form a fairytale picture that only appears briefly in winter. Travel in a small, high-quality group, with optional hotel pick-up and drop-off. The itinerary first heads to the Hida Takayama Old Town (if there is traffic congestion, the sightseeing time may be shortened or the Takayama attractions may be canceled). Stroll through the old streets that retain the style of the Edo, Meiji, and Taisho periods, where wooden houses, sake breweries, and traditional shops intertwine to form a Japanese streetscape full of historical charm. During the free lunch time, you can taste Takayama ramen, Hida beef dishes, and local snacks, leisurely experiencing the rustic charm of "Little Kyoto of Hida." Afterward, travel from Takayama to Shirakawa-go Gassh
