Dear Hida Times Readers
-

Thank you for visiting Rural Japan Explorer. Hida, our home town, is the beautiful region surrounded by Hida mountains　(Northern Japanese Alps) and Mt.Haku. Hida is known for TAKUMI(skillful woodworkers) and you will see Machiya (traditional merchant houses) and Minka(traditional farm houses) build by them. Once getting off the town, you will see a beautiful countryside landscape with old farm houses dotted in vast rice fields. You can enjoy hiking and cycling in rural villages, climbing one of the Japan's highest mountains. Here we suggest 2 types of 3day trip to Hida from Tokyo. If you are inspired by these trip ideas, don't hesitate to contact us!
