    Gifu Pref. Gujoushi Hachimanchoushimadani
    A scenic old water canal located right next to the Former Gujo-Hachiman City Hall Memorial Building a five minute drive from the Gujo-Hachiman Interchange. Enclosed by the stone walls of old Japanese homes, trees, and shrubs, the canal has an old fashioned atmosphere harkening back to a different age. Visitors can see colorful red and white koi carp swimming in the canal and, in summer, possibly see locals cooling a watermelon in its waters. Sometimes locals also keep baskets of sweetfish used for bait in the canal, as well, and being able to taste the air of one of Japan’s bygone eras is one of the area’s biggest highlights. There are three clothes washing areas along the canal which also serve as social gathering spaces for locals.
  • Hydrangea Road
    Travel / Tourism
    Gifu Pref. Sekishi Itadori
    This pass runs along the clear waters of the Itadori River that flows almost through the center of the Itadori district, and is known by this name because of the approximately 70,000 hydrangeas that are planted along the nearly 24 kilometer highway. Even selected as one of Japan’s top 100 roads, various events are held when the hydrangea are in bloom. The best time to see them is from mid-June to early July, and it bustles with many tourists from inside and outside the prefecture who visit every year at that time.

Tucked away in the very center of Japan, Gifu prefecture houses mountains, old towns, and one of Japan’s greatest hot springs, Gero Onsen. A tour of the prefecture’s traditional architecture will take you from the mountain-enveloped wooden streets of Takayama to the mountain village of Shirakawago, where visitors can explore 250-year-old thatched roofed houses known as gassho-zukuri.
