[Shirakawa-go Gassho Village] Shirakawa-go is surrounded by mountains on all sides, with rice fields crisscrossing and a trickle of rivers flowing through it. Known as the kingdom of forests and streams, the village of Ogimachi in Shirakawa-go is the village with the largest number of houses among the three villages registered as World Heritage sites (Shirakawa-go, Ainokura in Goka-yama, and Suganuma), with 152 houses. The Obairakawa River, which flows from the sacred Mount Haku, merges with the Shogawa River and becomes snowy white and turbid, which is the origin of the name of Shirakawa-go. The Shiroyama observation deck is located in the northeastern part of Gassho Village in Ogimachi, Shirakawa-go, where you can have a panoramic view of Gassho Village and the vast Mount Haku. [Strolling through the old streets of Takayama, Hida] The center of Takayama City, in the northern part of Gifu Prefecture and the central area of the Hida region, preserves the complete form of the castle town and merchant town sin
