Touring Rural Japan: Takayama Old Town
Wed 2010/10/06 22:01 JST
So while touring the Japanese countryside I stumbled upon the town of Takayama which is actually rated a whooping 3 stars on the Michelin Green Guide.
To those interested in Japan's anime culture as well as the culture beyond that, I thought I'd drop a few pictures to cater to that. Please leave me a comment if you like this sort of thing!
I've got the full writeup/entry on my blog over here!






















As always, awesome photos!
Do want to go see more rural areas of Japan, all we did last time was in tokyo, through I aint complaining lol xD
Come back, we can go do Kyoto too this time!
Lovely photos. Looks like a nice place to visit. ^^
wow, amazing
Great photos, particularly like the one on your blog of all the Sarubobos. Did you buy one? I did when I visited Takayama earlier this year. I enjoyed the town, ate some expensive beef and went to an excellent Tofu restaurant. Didn't make much of their "morning markets" though but did really enjoy the Hida-Takayama folk village nearby.
I have tons of Sarubobos. People keep giving them to me haha.
I didn't visit the morning markets, not much of a morning person, but the Hida beef is so good.
Yea we will, got a part time job interview tomorrow, gonna get saving so I can go back to Japan to see everyone again, not to mention HK where my Dollfie friends are :D
FML, wrong post, supposed to be for my previous post >.>
Outstanding photos, I would love to see more!
best photo
Watching these gorgeous photos really makes me want to go to Japan! (>_<)
I need to save up!!
BTW did you ride on the Jinrikisha? (4th photo)
Nah. it seems expensive. Riding the jinrikusha on your own is also so RONERY :(. But trying to take photographs in a group is also counterproductive, what a dilemma .
Wow, really, really beautiful photos. I'll get there someday. ^^
