A small exhibition about the Hida craftsmanship. There are samples and toys for you to assemble to understand how the tight structure between blocks and wood sticks. Unfortunately it was too much fun and I spent too long assembling the sample.

A good place to understand history of their wood craft, design, and principles of jointing. The museum has 2 levels of displays. You can experimenting disassemble and fixing the wood products there. It’s fun! The staff was helpful in bringing us around and sharing the knowledge and history.

The guide has English translations ready to go, making the information very easy to get. It’s a very cool museum for its size. There are hands-on examples, miniatures, displays of tools, and information to help you appreciate why Hida-Furukawa is known as the city of carpenters.

An interesting museum where one can learn about Hida’s majestic carpentry history. Set tickets at ¥800 can be bought, together with the nearby matsuri kaikan (recommended!). 🔨 Wooden blocks can be played with, audio sets can be borrowed, the third floor is tatami where one can rest while looking through the window with a nice view. 🌊 Ghibli stuff can also be seen!

Very cool little museum! Highlights local crafts and construction practices.

No pictures. The place serves as an educational centre how the wood building structures are hole together without the nails in Japan. Which says to be expensive to have such building for houses. I bought it with combination ticket to the festival hall. So paid 800yen in total.

A well curated museum that gives a wonderful insight into the famous local carpentry techniques. The friendly tour guide was fabulous and talked us through the intricacies of the joinery techniques. Perfect place to take kids too. Very reasonably priced at ¥300 with free audio tours

Nice and peaceful small village, worth to visit. All the carp in Seto canal had moved to another pond during late Nov to early Apr (winter time). All my children felt so disappointed 😞 when all the carp can't be seen in the Seto Canal. Just 20min & 240yen if take train JR takayama line from Takayama station.

My daughter really enjoyed feeding the fish along the canal. The koi were active and came right up to the edge, which made it fun and engaging for kids. It was a simple but memorable moment that added to the charm of walking through Setogawa and Shirakabe Dozou Street.

We arrived there during the Obon week (Wednesday). We arrived there around 10 am, and there was already a long line for their parking. It was especially crowded because the parking lot is under construction. We bypassed the parking and decided to park elsewhere. Though it was ten minutes walk (1,000 yen for parking), we felt it was worth the walk as the sightseeing bus was still at the bridge, meaning they hadn’t parked yet. We proceeded to go to the Main Street where there were many shops for snacks. It was my second visit, and I was surprised how crowded it was. Nonetheless, we were able to enjoy Shirakawa-go. Definitely arrive early if you don’t want to wait..before 9 am perhaps.

Beautiful street with carps swimming in the large canals. You can pay 100¥ to have access to a bag of bread to feed the fish. Quiet street with benches to sit and enjoy the serene atmosphere

A peaceful and beautiful place, not crowded. You can walk along the stream and feed the koi fish.

Nostalgic old Japanese town featuring Edo style buildings. The main attraction is the canal behind the buildings where the water is so clean that the owner of respective buildings keep their koi fish there. But please be aware that all the fish will be kept at different places during winter.

A beautiful street in the middle of the very quiet and laid back little town if Hida-Furukawa. The canals are flanked by white-black warehouses and have a very elegant look. It is recommended to visit in late April onwards, during which the canals will be filled with koi (I sadly did not get to see them). Just a short and cheap bus ride from Takayama Nohi Bus Center (Terminal 2)

Worth visit. University of Tokyo research lab.

Amazing and free. Also had a english immersive version for us.

Very rare place in Japan

(Translated by Google) I have passed by it many times, but never had a chance to stop in, so this time I stopped by as a designated roadside station for SSTR and for lunch. When you think of Kamioka, you think of the neutrino research facility "Super-Kamiokande." The building is silver, which evokes images of space? Science? In addition to snacks/restaurants and shops, the "Hida Space Science Museum Kamioka Lab" is also located here. For lunch, I was tempted by the limited 20 servings, so I ordered the Hida beef rib rice bowl and Araya char siu noodles. The Araya char siu noodles soup is a traditional soy sauce base, but it has a very complex flavor. It seems to be a combination of pork and chicken animal soup and seafood soup with seafood stock, and it has a light yet rich flavor. The noodles have a texture reminiscent of Japanese soba, which is a bit unusual. It goes well with the soup. The char siu is also soft and falls apart easily. The Hida beef rib rice bowl has a sweet and delicious fat. The sweet and spicy sauce goes great with rice. The shop has a wide selection of space science related goods. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to see KamiokaLab, but I'll definitely go next time! (Original) 度々前を通ることがあったのですが、立ち寄るチャンスがなく、今回、SSTRの指定道の駅＆昼食のため立ち寄りました。 神岡と言えばニュートリノ研究施設「スーパーカミオカンデ」ですよね。 建物は宇宙？科学？をイメージさせる銀色です。 軽食／レストラン、ショップの他に「ひだ宇宙科学館カミオカラボ」が併設されています。 ランチは限定20食につられて飛騨牛カルビ丼、あらやチャーシュー麺をお願いしました。 あらやチャーシュー麺のスープは昔ながらの醤油ベースかと思いきや、非常に複雑なお味です。豚、鶏の動物系スープと魚介スープに魚介だしを合わせているらしく、あっさりした中にしっかりとコクがあります。麺も日本そばを思わせる食感、ちょっと変わってます。スープに合ってますね。 チャーシューも柔らか、ホロホロです。 飛騨牛カルビ丼は脂の甘み旨みを感じます。タレも甘辛くでご飯に良く合います。 ショップには宇宙科学関連のグッズが揃っています。 残念ながら、時間がなくてカミオカラボを見ることができませんでしたが次回は是非！

(Translated by Google) I was driving along National Route 471 from Tokyo via Matsumoto, heading from Okuhida Onsenkyo to Tateyama Station, and passed through Kamioka Town. Speaking of Kamioka Town, I thought it was home to the famous "Super-Kamiokande." And it turned out to be true. There was a roadside station with a similar name. I didn't stop there on the way there, but I did on the way back. It was crowded because it was Obon. There were also shops and restaurants. I had Takayama ramen. Afterwards, I went to KamiokaLab, which introduces Super-Kamiokande inside the roadside station. Why is Super-Kamiokande in a place like this? Now I understand the reason. (Original) 東京から松本経由で奥飛騨温泉郷から立山駅に向かう途中国道４７１号線を走っていると、途中神岡町を通った。神岡町といえばあの「スーパーカミオカンデ」のあるところか。 やはりそうであった。それらしき名の道の駅があった。 行きは寄らなかったが、帰りに立ち寄った。 ちょうどお盆で混雑していた。 売店や飲食店もある。高山ラーメンを食べた。 その後道の駅内にあるスーパーカミオカンデを紹介するカミオカラボに行ってみた。 こんな場所になぜスーパーカミオカンデが？その理由もわかった。

(Translated by Google) As the name suggests, this is a rare roadside station with the Super-Kamiokande museum located on its premises. As well as the Super-Kamiokande museum and space-related exhibits, it also has all the facilities of a typical roadside station, such as a shop selling locally grown vegetables and souvenirs, and a restaurant. (Original) 名前の通りスーパーカミオカンデの博物館が敷地内にある珍しい宙推しの道の駅。 スーパーカミオカンデの博物館や宇宙関連の展示のほかは地場産野菜やお土産の売店、食堂等一般的な道の駅の施設も一通り揃っています。

(Translated by Google) I would recommend this visit to all space enthusiasts out there. Even if you're not an expert on science, you'll enjoy it if you can get a sense of the romance of space. And it's free! There was no admission fee, so I made a donation. (Original) 世の宇宙少年は是非行ってもらいたい。 科学に詳しくなくても宇宙のロマンとかを感じるのなら楽しめます。 しかも無料！ 入館料がいらなかったので募金しました。

A nice exhibit featuring the Hida Furukawa festival. There is a short video/movie in a small theater, marionettes and drums you can try to play with, and a photo spot where you can try out the Tombo pose. There were only a few visitors that time and the female staff took photos for me 🙂 There is also a souvenir shop and a resting area inside the building.

An unexpected treat! Well worth the reasonable price of admission to see the 20 informative and vibrant film. The exhibition hall housed the intricate floats.

Insightful exhibition about the furukawa festival with almost all actual artifacts used on display. Staff are very friendly. They also show an informative mini documentary about the movie. Overall giving you a great experience about the festival without participating one.

A place to understand Hida-Furukawa festival. A theatre to show the festival. Close up looks of the Floats, experience the control of wooden puppet, enter the display float & etc. During the festival, floats will back to their storehouse. Therefore, no floats will be display at the exhibition.

It was fascinating to learn about Hida Furukawa Festival. This museum is well kept, and they have a nice theater to watch a short documentary about the matsuri. ☺️ Set tickets with a discount can be bought, which includes entrance to the nearby crafts museum. 🔨

Worth going to just see the amazing 20-min video presentation of the festival in the mini theatre itself! Friendly staff, and seeing the floats and costumes up close. Tip: received a 200 yen discount coupon from the visitor centre in town to use for this exhibition.

A fascinating museum which explains the local Hida Furukawa Festival. Has displays of all the instruments, equipment and floats used in the festival and has a 20 minute video which shows and explains the festival. The video is Japanese but has very well translated English subtitles. A must see if you're in the area and admission is only ¥500. The staff were also incredibly kind and welcoming.

I stopped by Hourai Sake Brewer Watanabe Shuzoten (渡辺酒造店) and got to try both the free samples and the paid tasting set. The staff were friendly and helpful, explaining the differences between each sake. The tasting selection offered a nice range, from crisp, light options to richer, full-bodied flavors. Their signature sake had a smooth finish with a balanced sweetness. Cozy atmosphere and traditional brewery feel made the experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone interested in local sake!

Watanabe is the best sake brewery I know! It’s located in the beautiful scenery of Hida. It’s a small town with a lot of nature around it. The sake from Watanabe comes in a wide range. From standard well balanced to a perfect Daiginjo they have it all! You can taste the rice in the sake. All of the worker are super friendly and will help you with all your questions. It’s a must to see this brewery if you like sake. They have a lovely tasting room where you can try all their products.

Do go for the sake sampler vending machine to try out all Watanabe's offering. 100 yen for each sample.

My wife and I came here for a guided tour of the brewery. A wonderful place, established in 1870, it is incredibly interesting to see their work in action and have the sake brewing process explained. Our guide was knowledgeable and had great English! We were able to taste a special reserve that they don't sell, which was absolutely delightful. Highly recommended a tour if you have the opportunity. Also, we happened to win the secret prize in the 400 yen gacha machine, great prize!!

An absolutely fantastic Sake brewery. I couldn't speak more highly of them. Lovely people. And the sake? What great tasting sake it is. Some of the best in Japan. They are also a jolly lot. Go there when they have their matsuri. Street food, live entertainment from well known Japanese comedians. Great!

Best sake I have ever tasted. We couldn't help but buy a couple of bottles, even though we don't have any space to carry them back home. Guess we have no choice but to finish them in a week ╮( ╯_╰)╭ . They provide free tastings, and there's no pressure to buy. Most of the tourists that drop by seem to be from Japan, and they look like they came to this town just to buy sake from here.

Famous sake brewery. Friendly staff and great sake.

A good temple in the middle of Hida City. ☺️

One of the must-see places in Hida. Very nice Temple next to full of carp fish canal...

Beautiful temple in a very beautiful town. Hida took the crown as my favorite location in Japan.

No crowd before 9am

One of three famous Shrine on Hida Furukawa

The streams surrounding here is the highlights of the trip.

Nice temple, helped by its location next to the canal with koi fish.

I know many people come here because of the Your Name anime. However, the station could actually make it more interesting. I understand it might seem like too much since it’s just a train station and not a tourist attraction, but tourists do visit here from time to time. They should be aware of this and consider doing something to enhance the experience.

We were glad, on hindsight, the bus tickets to Shirakawa-go were sold out and we came here for a day trip instead. The entire place was absolutely beautiful, quiet and devoid (mostly) of tourists. We were lucky to also have soba at the local favorite, Sobasho Nakaya, before taking the 4.10pm train back to Takayama.

Hida Furukawa, a good short stay from Takayama or a wonderful day trip. A 20mins train ride from Takayama and you will land in a picture perfect town with beautiful shophouses and canals filled with lively carps ( except for winter ) A charming place to spend half a day strolling the shrines and streets or a short stay away from the crowds in the other larger towns.

Stayed here for several days on my own and loved it. This is not a tourist trap, its a beautiful town where you will relax. Also it has two exceptional Sake breweries, pleasant surprise!

I believe you would have watched the famous anime named “your name-君の名”, So this is the real life location of it, place is very simple, everyone should give a try on visiting the Shrine which was mentioned in the anime, the hida character refers this Hida city so buy that cow 🐮 omiyage also.This place is for anime lovers or else it is same like another places in japan. Since it is a old village things here will give a nostalgic and traditional look.

A cost small station which has been widely known because of the renown Japanese comic movie “your name”. Very thoughtful photo taking guide and tips inside and outside of the station. There are NOT so many trains everyday so plan your trip ahead if you are heading to this amazing place.

Small old town near Takayama. Only 15 minutes by train. The most favorite attraction is a small canal named Seto river. The canel is lined by old store houses with white walls where you can see a billion of craps.

A small exhibition about the Hida craftsmanship. There are samples and toys for you to assemble to understand how the tight structure between blocks and wood sticks. Unfortunately it was too much fun and I spent too long assembling the sample.

We love the hike up to the shrine. It's only a short walk from the town (about 20 mins), and once you are up there, the atmosphere is very calm and peaceful, where you are underneath the big tall cedars and can overlook the city.

Very nice & peaceful shrine at the bottom of the forest & a view over the village.

Famous with the movie called “your name”. Silent and sacred place to feel the existence of god in Japan.

Went to Keta Wakamiya shrine on the 1st of 2022 for Hatsumode! The shrine is beautiful in the snow😍. It was packed with visitors so it was hard to find parking. The roads were very slippery, it didn't seem like they have spread salt on the ground to melt the snow or have any antislip measures. There were many elderly there it looked very dangerous for them to climb the stairs and down. I also slipped a few times on way down.

A good place to view Furukawa city under sunshine. A small shrine without many people here, but a little far from train station.

This is a beautiful shrine on top of a hill, serenely surrounded by trees. The best part is you can get a panoramic view of entire Hida-Furukawa from here. And this helps you understand why the shrine has been central to communal life in the area for centuries -- it's as if gods and goddesses were overseeing and protecting all folks down there. A wonderful place to visit, particularly for those who are spiritually inclined. Breathing in and out in front of the panoramic view can fill you with positive energy and inspirations!

Any fans of Your Name, the Romance Anime. The stairway was used in the movie.

This temple is a little more interesting than others. Very nice entrance/gate. Nice grounds inside. I'm at the point where the temples don't interest me much anymore. They're all too similar. But I really do like the manicured trees. I wish our climate at home would allow me to grow one. We came on a Sunday. The temple, like the rest of town, was pretty much deserted. (If memory serves me correctly, there are some nice public restrooms on the temple grounds.)

Temple made by woods. Great place for walking and relaxing.

(Translated by Google) 🕯Three temples are a midwinter event: Gently think about it🕯 It is one of the temples visited during the three temple pilgrimages, a winter tradition in Hida Furukawa held on January 15th every year. Let's pray by candlelight with our thoughts. A traditional event that has continued for over 200 years. During the Meiji and Taisho eras, migrant women who returned home from silk mills in Shinshu dressed up and went around the festival, and it became a place for men and women to meet, so it became popular as a matchmaking event. It is a cold winter event, and it is a night event. I can't help but hope that I will have a good encounter. Snow statue candles about 2 meters high were lined up along the street, leading women passing by in kimono to the three temples. Incidentally, it is a subsidiary temple of Honganji, the main branch of the Jodo Shinshu sect. (Original) 🕯三寺まいりは真冬の行事：そっと想いを🕯 毎年１月１５日に行われる飛騨古川の冬の風物詩、三寺まいりで巡拝するお寺の一つ。ろうそくの灯りに想いを込めてお参りしよう。２００年以上続く伝統行事。明治、大正時代には、信州の製糸工場から帰省した出稼ぎ女性が着飾って巡り、男女の出会いの場となったことから縁結びの行事としても親しまれる。 寒い冬の、しかも夜の行事である。良き出会いがあることを願わずにはいられない。 通りには高さ約２メートルの雪像ろうそくが並び、着物姿で行き交う女性らを三つの寺に導いた。 因みに浄土真宗本派本願寺の末寺となる。

(Translated by Google) 241103 I went on the Hida Takayama Hida Furukawa tour. I came here as one of the three temples I visited. It was a very splendid temple. thank you very much. I couldn't stamp the stamps for visiting the three temples because the ink mat was dry, and no one was there to get the stamps, so I left disappointed. I think the government should properly protect tourism programs. (Original) 241103 飛騨高山飛騨古川ツアーで行きました。三寺参りの一つということで参りました。とても立派なお寺さんでした。ありがとうございました。三寺参り用の印はインクマットが乾いてて打てず、御朱印をいただこうにもどなたもおらず、がっくり立ち去りました。行政がちゃんと観光プログラムを保護すべきだと思います。

(Translated by Google) The main hall of Honkoji Temple is the largest wooden building in the Hida region and has the most presence in the city. It is a powerful wooden building. The bell hall also has a sturdy structure, giving it a sense of history. (Original) 本光寺の本堂は、木造建築では飛騨地域で最も大きく、市内随一の存在感を誇るお寺。力強い木造建築感じます。釣り鐘の御堂もがっちりと舌を作り、歴史を感じさせるものになってます。

(Translated by Google) This is a historic main hall that survived a great fire a long time ago. The wood of the building also gives a sense of its history. It is a wooden structure so tall you can look up at it. You can't enter the main hall, but you can go up to the veranda in socks. If you want to tour the three temples, it's convenient to park in the free public parking lot behind the station.

(Translated by Google) I visited on a holiday evening. It has not been deleted from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism page. Roadside station stamps are available so a visit is a must. I visited after learning about the closure on the news, but the signboard was painted white so it didn't seem to be a false alarm. (Original) 休日の夕方に訪問しました 国土交通省のぺージからは削除されていません 道の駅スタンプは出ていますので訪問必須です ニュースで廃業を知って訪問しましたが、看板が白塗りされていたので誤報では無いようです

(Translated by Google) I heard that the registration would be canceled at the end of March, so I used it to say goodbye. Although the restrooms are not in operation, we have used them several times. I also received the last stamp. (Original) 3月いっぱいで登録抹消されると聞いて、お別れの気持ちを込めて利用してきました。 トイレ以外は運営されていませんが、何度かお世話になりました。最後のスタンプも貰ってきました。

(Translated by Google) 2025.6.15 It was completely closed. Cones were placed to prevent entry into the parking lot. The stamps had also been removed. It's sad to see the pamphlets in the tourist information center still there. (Original) 2025.6.15 完全に閉鎖していました。 コーンが置かれていて、駐車場には入れないようになっています。 スタンプも撤去されていました。 観光案内所内のパンフレットがそのままなのが寂しいですね。

(Translated by Google) I managed to get a stamp before it was discontinued. I guess reviews won't be posted anymore. It can't be helped, but it's sad. (Original) 何とか廃止前に、スタンプ貰いに行けました もう口コミが投稿される事も無くなるんでしょうね、仕方ないけど寂しい限りです

(Translated by Google) Visited for the Chubu Roadside Station stamp rally. Gifu No. 43 Hida Furukawa Ibushi. As shown in the closed status on Google Maps, the store is currently closed due to a change in operating company. It is not necessary for a roadside station to have a shop, so it would be a bit misleading to say that it is closed as a roadside station, but you can use the parking lot as a rest area, and you can also use the restroom. When proceeding with the Roadside Station Stamp Rally, I was concerned about the status of the stamps, but the stamp storage area was set up so that it would not be inside the store. The shops are currently not open, and if you think they won't just put out stamps and put them away, you might be able to stamp them 24 hours a day. However, I stamped it around 10:40, so it's not really helpful. The stamps here were difficult to tell which were up and down. The stamp storage area was dark, so I couldn't really make out the stamps even when I looked at them. The diagram may be a little complicated. It seems that it was stamped in the correct direction, so if you stamp it so that the roadside station mark is at the bottom, the pattern will be in the correct direction. It may have been written which way is on top, as I often see, but I didn't notice that. The stamps are quite large, so I only put one in the stamp book, but they also had small JAF stamps that you often see at Chubu Expressway stations. (Original) 中部道の駅スタンプラリーのため訪問。 岐阜４３番 飛騨古川いぶし。 Google Maps上も休業中ステータスにされているように、売店などは運営会社変更に伴って休業中。 道の駅としては売店併設は必須でもないはずなので、道の駅として休業中と言うと少々語弊がある状況で、休憩場所としての駐車場の利用は可能ですし、お手洗いも使えます。 道の駅スタンプラリーを進めるにあたって気になるのはスタンプの状況でしたが、スタンプ置き場は店内にならないように用意されていました。 売店が営業していない状況ですし、いちいちスタンプだけを出したり仕舞ったりをしないのではと思えば、２４時間捺せるのかも知れません。 ただ、私が捺したのは１０時４０分頃なので参考にはならず。 ここのスタンプは上下が分かりづらかった。 スタンプ置き場が暗いこともあり、スタンプを見てもよく分からず。図がちょっと複雑なのもありそう。 捺した向きであっていたようで、道の駅マークが下に来るように捺せば図柄が正しい向きになってそうです。 よく見かけるようにどっちが上かとか書いてあったのかも知れませんが、気づかなかったです。 スタンプはかなり大きいので、スタンプブックには１つ捺すので精一杯ですが、中部道の駅でよく見かけるＪＡＦの小さいスタンプっぽいものも置いてありました。

(Translated by Google) I bought these Hida Furukawa bean snacks, Mame Tsukage, around 2000, when this place was still popular and had a shop. A few years later, the shop closed, so I could no longer buy them here. I had a craving for them, so I bought some online from Goto Liquor Store in Hida Furukawa. They're soybeans fried in flour, not too sweet, and have a great texture. They're delicious as a snack or with alcohol, and once you start eating them, you won't be able to stop. If you visit Hida Furukawa, be sure to buy some. It seems like this place has been retired as a roadside station. The reason for this is said to be the sharp decline in users following the full opening of the Tokai-Hokuriku Expressway. (Original) 2000年頃にここがまだ人気があって売店等があった時に買った飛騨古川の豆菓子豆つかげ 数年後売店がなくなってここで買えなくなった 久しぶりに食べたくなってネットで飛騨古川の後藤酒店で購入 大豆を小麦粉で揚げてあって甘すぎず歯ごたえ抜群でおやつに酒のツマミにと食べだしたら止まらない美味しさ 飛騨古川に行った時には是非買って下さい ここは道の駅としてお役御免になったみたいです 東海北陸道が全線開通したことにより利用者が激減した事が原因とされてます

(Translated by Google) The road from Furukawa to Hida Kiyomi IC... This was the first time I had taken this route. I found a roadside station and decided to go in. It had a large parking lot. There was an ornamental sculpture of a man engaged in land development work. The site was large, but the shops were small. There was a shop selling souvenirs, a corner for wooden products, a corner for antiques and recycled goods, and a takeaway snack shop. There was even a bear fur in the souvenir section. Among the antiques were black telephones, electric fans, chests of drawers, and Japanese dolls, all for sale. It was fun to see old scales mixed in with the recycled power tools. I haven't seen one recently, but it seemed like a bear was right there a few years ago. Two mothers were working the takeaway corner at a leisurely pace. ●Hida beef skewers 400 yen ●Hida beef croquette 300 yen We took a stroll while the skewers were being grilled. There was also a place where we could collect spring water. As it is not on a road that connects to Takayama city, there are few cars on the road even on weekends, making it a quiet roadside station. The Hida beef skewers were made with tender Hida beef seasoned with salt and pepper, and the slightly stronger salt and pepper made by a country mother made it even more delicious. The Hida beef croquette was delicious with its coarse breadcrumbs. This roadside station had a very slow and relaxing feel to it. Thank you for the meal. (Original) 古川から飛騨清見ICへ抜ける道…。 初めて通ったルートです。 道の駅を見つけ、入ってみた。 広い駐車場の道の駅。 開拓作業をしている人のオブジェがあります。 敷地は広いが、お店は小さめ。 おみやげ等を売るお店、木製品のコーナー、骨董品やリサイクル品のコーナー、そして、軽食のテイクアウトがあります。 おみやげ売場には熊の毛皮なんかもありました。骨董品には黒電話、扇風機、箪笥など、日本人形が寂しげに売られていました。 電動工具のリサイクルコーナーなんかに混じって、昔の秤などもあって、楽しい。 最近は見ないけど、数年前にはすぐそこに熊が来たっけなんて言ってみえた。 テイクアウトコーナーはお母さんお二人がスローな感じで店番をしています。 ●飛騨牛串焼き　400円 ●飛騨牛コロッケ　300円 串を焼いて頂く間に散策。 湧き水を汲むところもありました。 高山市街地とつながる道ではないため、週末でも車の通りも少なく、静かな道の駅です。 飛騨牛串焼きは柔らかな飛騨牛に塩胡椒、少し濃いめの塩胡椒が田舎のお母さんの味付けがかえって美味しい。 飛騨牛コロッケは粗めのパン粉が美味しいコロッケでした。 なかなかこの道の駅、スローな感じがほっこりする道の駅でした。 ごちそうさまでした。

It is a small and cute castle situated on top of the hill. Has a wonderful and majestic view of the town in the valley. I drove from Hida just because I was curious and I was not disappointed. They do close at 4 PM so make sure you get there before closing time. The view was really nice and calming, not much people and the other visitors were local tourist. Nice place to go if you want off the beaten path spots since it’s an easy drive from Hida and Takayama.

(Translated by Google) I went on a Sunday and it was pretty quiet so I was able to explore at my own pace. The view from the castle tower was amazing! The admission fee was only 200 yen, so it was very cheap! (Original) 日曜日に行ったのですが、結構空いていてゆっくり見学することができました。 天守閣からの景色もよく最高でした！ 入場料は200円と、とても安いです！

(Translated by Google) The parking lot in front of Kamioka Castle is free and spacious. It seems to be a hidden tourist spot that's always empty♪ The grounds are compact, and the castle isn't very large. There is an admission fee to climb the castle tower, but it's only 200 yen, which is reasonable. It also costs 200 yen to visit the former Matsubayashi family home, an Important Tangible Folk Cultural Property located on the grounds. (Original) 神岡城前の駐車場は無料で広々としています。 どうやらいつでも空いている穴場観光地みたいですね♪ こじんまりとした敷地内であり、城も大きくありません。 天守閣に登るには入場料は取られますが、200円とお安い。 また、敷地内にある重要有形民族文化財である旧松葉家も、見学には200円かかります。

(Translated by Google) A hidden tourist spot. The castle itself was apparently built based on Inuyama Castle in Aichi Prefecture and Maruoka Castle in Fukui Prefecture. Although detailed information is scarce, the view from the castle is truly that of a castle town. 😆 The breeze blowing up from the river is incredibly pleasant. 😄 (Original) 隠れた観光地。 城自体は愛知県の犬山城、福井県の丸岡城を参考に建てられた城だそうです。 細かな資料は乏しいみたいですが、城から見る景色は正に城下町😆 川から吹き上げてくる風は、なんとも気持ちいい😄

(Translated by Google) Mitsui Mining & Smelting, which operated the Kamioka Mine, restored the castle of the Ema clan, a local lord from the Middle Ages, as a contribution to the local area. However, the shape is apparently based on Maruoka Castle in Fukui. Located on the same grounds as the Kamioka Mine Museum and the old houses, a joint ticket for all three costs 200 yen, or if you purchase a combined ticket with the Ema Clan Residence, which is about 1.5km away, you can visit all three for 300 yen. (Original) 神岡鉱山を経営した三井金属鉱山が当地への貢献として、中世の国人領主江馬氏の城を復元したもの。 ただし形は福井丸岡城などを参考にしたらしい。 神岡鉱山資料館と古民家と同じ敷地内にあり3つ共通で＠200円、1.5キロほど離れた江馬氏居館との共通券だと＠300円で全て鑑賞できる。

(Translated by Google) 2025/6/29 You can visit Kamioka Castle, the Mine Museum, and the former Matsuba family home by paying the admission fee at the Mine Museum next to Kamioka Castle. Inside Kamioka Castle is a museum. From the top floor you can get a panoramic view of the mining town. Castle seals are available for purchase at the shop at the nearby roadside station. (Original) 2025/6/29 神岡城の隣の鉱山資料館にて入館料を払えば、神岡城と鉱山資料館と旧松葉家を見学できます。 神岡城の中は資料館となっおります。最上階は鉱山の町を一望できます。 御城印は近くの道の駅の売店にて販売しております。

(Translated by Google) It's a small but beautiful castle. I went there early in the morning so it was closed, but it still had a nice atmosphere just looking at it from outside the walls. (Original) 小さいけど綺麗なお城。早朝に行ったので閉まっていましたが塀の外から眺めるだけでも良い雰囲気でした。

So amazing experience and memorable moments with my family. I love how his first ski ❤️❤️❤️

ski trip to Nagareha in Hida district. it is wide and long snow resort to ski and snowboard. on top of the mountain, you will discover another snow resort called 'kokusetsu Nagareha', where you can enjoy skiing on various types of galende, such as advanced, upper intermediate, intermediate, and elementary skiers and boarders. in fact, the last time i visited Nagareha, it was impossible for me to find the top one cz it was snowing heavily then. kokusetsu faces north, so if you are not satisfied enough Nagareha, you don't miss kokusets since the snow condition must be much better than the one facing south.

Small ski resort but it's only 1100 yen for one day ticket on Friday. So cheap make the short course very satisfying.

What am amaxing place on the doorstep of amazing natural wilderness

(Translated by Google) The catchphrase "Why not try going an hour further than usual?" excited me, so I went to Nagareha Ski Resort for the first time on the way back from Hirayu on January 14th! Since it was a weekday, the parking lot and slopes were empty. The staff were incredibly friendly and the views were amazing! I was so impressed with the ground conditions that I almost thought I'd gotten better at snowboarding! It's a place that can be enjoyed by beginners and advanced skiers alike, and what's more... The wider slopes above the 10th Pair Lift have great terrain, are great for fun, and even have a restaurant for a break!!! I'll definitely be back🫡 (Original) 「いつもより1時間ほど遠出してみませんか」 のキャッチフレーズに心ときめき1/14平湯からの帰りに初・流葉スキー場しました！平日だったこともあり駐車場もゲレンデも空いていました。とにかくスタッフさんがとても親切で😭景色も最高！ボードが上手くなった⁉️と勘違いしてしまうほどのグランドコンディションに感激！ 初心者から上級者まで楽しめて，更に、、、 第10ペアリフトの上に更に広く展開するゲレンデは地形もよくかなり遊べで休憩するレストランもあり！！！また行きまーす🫡

(Translated by Google) The sea of clouds is amazing!!! A ski resort with a spectacular view! We went on March 2, 2025. It seems they're open until March 9th this season. The closing date may change depending on the weather, so please check the official website for the exact date. It may be a coincidence, but for me, this ski resort has a high chance of seeing the sea of clouds. Once you reach the top, there are fairly steep areas, narrow areas, and areas that are like natural half-pipes with slopes. I think this is a ski resort that intermediate to advanced skiers who are tired of simple ski resorts or ski resorts with very long lift waits can enjoy. However, I think beginners will also have a great time if they take the shorter lift. There's also a hot spring. I like the mountain hut-style restaurant on the left side of the slope. (Original) 雲海最高！！！絶景スキー場！ 2025.3/2に行きました。 今シーズンは3/9までらしいです。 クローズ日は天候などにより変更の可能性もあると思いますので、正確な日付は公式をご確認下さい。 たまたまかもしれないけれど、私の中では雲海が見れる率が高いスキー場。 頂上まで登るとまぁまぁな急斜面エリアや、横幅が狭いエリア、傾斜がある天然のハーフパイプのようなエリアもあるので、シンプルなスキー場や、リフト待ちがとても長いスキー場に飽きた中級者さん上級者さんが楽しめるスキー場かな。と思います。 ですが短い方のリフトに乗れば初心者さんも十分楽しめると思います。 温泉もあります。 ゲレンデ左側にあるレストランが、山小屋風で雰囲気があって好きです。

We are a group of six from Singapore. By chance, we stumbled upon this museum with a café that served exquisite cheese and coffee (a perfect pairing). The Japanese rice sushi was also excellent. The environment was friendly and cozy, and the hospitality was great.

If you enjoy tea & baked cheese cake this is a lovely stop on your Hida Furukawa walking tour. Be mindful you are paying for the experience more so than the food so it is 750yen for each item in the menu. It was a nice experience. The owner is lovely. It is across from an amazing little wood maker shop where you can get quality artisanal gifts and souvenirs.

I was exploring the hidafurukawa area and happened to chance upon this traditional Japanese styled house. Very unique architecture. The owner is an older japanese lady and she was just arriving back after running some errands. She greeted me and invited me in for some coffee and cheesecake, which were delicious. The whole experience of having coffee in a traditional japanese house is worth it. I would definitely return if i ever visit the hidafurukawa area again. Highly recommended.

Spent one lovely summer afternoon in this cafe. We were the only ones there. The owner - a very kind lady - offered her special cheesecake, which didn’t disappoint. It had a siding of fruits: grapes and raspberries. 🍰 Everything on the menu costs ¥750 each, so coffee + cake was a little expensive, but still worth it if you aim to really relax inside a traditional Japanese home. 😌 There wasn’t really a museum, but the lady owner was very entertaining. She told us about the town’s matsuri and gave us some pamphlets as お守り 🥰

Had a lovely visit with Toshiko and her friends. Cheesecake, pastries and coffee served on antique bone china in an authentic Hida household. Oishii!

Nice Japanese hospitality. Cheese is very light and delicious. Matcha tea is very good.

Bumped into this cafe with art displayed, has a nice miniature garden and neat set up. I recommend the cheesecake and the coffee.
