**Day 1: Hida Takayama, Shirakawa-go** In Hida Takayama, visit historical spots such as the Takayama Jinya, the only remaining magistrate's office in Japan that retains its original architecture. You can also enjoy local delicacies such as Hida beef, Takayama ramen, Hida soba noodles, soy sauce dumplings, and cute "Sarubobo" (monkey baby) shaped ice cream, a local folk craft.
