Apparwntly the name means tall mountains, but we were pleasantly surprised at the gentle hills. We arrived safe and sound and gound our accommodation. This place is remarkable. The staff are wonderful, the food amazing, and our surroundings endlessly peaceful.
We spent our day in the Hida historical village and exploring the town itself, which is very traditional. It is filled with heritage listed buildings and an example of a centuries old shogunate administration building - the ladt of its kind in Japan.
The village itself, in my mind, can best be described as a Japanese Hobbiton. Headed to Kyoyo tomorrow morning, and without further ado - here's the photos!
