    Gifu Pref. Gifushi Nagara 51-2
    This museum in Gifu City, Gifu Prefecture is a six-minute walk from the Ukaiya bus station located a short bus ride from Gifu Station. The museum was opened in 2012 in order to propagate, spread, and protect the tradition of ukai (cormorant fishing) in the Nagara River, which has continued for over 1,300 years. The museum’s first floor features an area where you can learn hands-on about ukai as well as exhibits including examples of traditional ukai attire. On the second floor, visitors can enjoy learning about ukai from exhibits about usho (cormorant fisherman) and their yago (trade names), exhibits on historical figures with deep connections to ukai, a “guidance theater,” and more. The museum also rents out conference rooms and other facilities.

    This is a great insight into the ukai. Miserable weather outside prevented me from better enjoyment of the live birds, in their full breeding plumage. There should be some interaction with the u...

    Gifu Prefecture Kanghua castle tower Gifu mountain peak
    This facility consists of the restored Gifu Castle and a museum with historical items. Once known as Inaba-yama Castle when the Warring States Period commander Saito Dosan lived there, it took on the name of the Gifu area after being captured by Oda Nobunaga. Gifu Castle was restored in its current form in 1956. It's at a high elevation and commands a majestic view of Gifu from the castle tower. Historical items from the Warring States Period including armor, chain mail, musical instruments and more are on display in the museum.

    名鉄竹鼻線西笠松駅から西南西へ徒歩8分程、名古屋本線笠松駅からですと徒歩12分程です。 岐阜県笠松町の歴史的な展示だけでなく、2階には宇宙開発、小惑星りゅうぐうを探査した「はやぶさ2」についての実話に基づく展示があり、興味深く観賞しました。 入館時はコロナ感染症対策で検温、手指消毒、氏名電話番号の記録などの対策がとられていまして、今日午前11時までの入館者は私1人だけ(?)でゆっくりしっかり観覧で...

    Gifu Hashima-gun Ginancho Heisei 7-chome 38

    図書館入って左側の一角にあります。資料館というよりは資料室といった格付け。勿論町民以外も入場無料。農耕具関係の展示とか見るべきものがあるとお世辞には言えるかも。図書館で新聞立ち読みツイデ寄りには不可もなく。

    Gifu Pref. Gifushi Tsubakibora 776-3

    昔はたまに行ってましたが、2016年4月にリニューアルされたので久しぶりに行ってみました。畜産センターの一角にあり無料で見学できます。みつばちのに関する様々な情報が得られ、勉強になるのでお値打ちな施設です。昔は古く幾分暗かったが、今は明るく楽しめる施設になってます。

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.
