Hida Takayama Old Town

Hida Takayama Old Town

The "Old Town" of Hida Takayama consists of three main streets that developed as a merchant town and served as the center of a castle town. Under the eaves lined with latticed windows, waterways flow, and cedar-leaf "sakabayashi" banners are hung at sake breweries, while the large doors of traditional townhouses and the noren curtains of long-established shops line the streets. In the upper town, there are candy shops, stores selling traditional crafts, and shops selling the famous Mitarashi dango, bustling with tourists. On the other hand, the lower town features confectionery shops, rice cake shops, antique shops, agricultural tool stores, tatami mat shops, stationery stores, post offices, and restaurants, preserving the charming old town atmosphere. It is a popular spot for those in the know about Takayama, allowing visitors to indulge in its history and unique ambiance.
