    Gifu Gero-shi Yunoshima‧Koda‧Mori
    A historic hot spring district and, together with Arima Onsen in Hyogo Prefecture and Kusatsu Onsen in Gunma Prefecture, considered one of the three most renowned hot spring districts in Japan. Sprawling along the Hidagawa River, the area is dotted with numerous hot spring inns, communal baths, and free footbaths, making it easy for visitors to enjoy all the delights of hot spring bathing. The area's simple alkaline hot spring waters are colorless and are notable for making the skin feel soft and smooth. The waters moisturize the skin and aid in heat retention. Also said to aid the removal of old, dead skin layers, these waters are known for their beautifying properties. The area is also dotted with natural carbonated springs welling up from underneath the ground, and this hot spring district is particularly popular with women.

    Gifu Pref. Onogunshirakawamura Magari 223
    A natural simple alkaline hot spring located on the grounds of the Toyota Shirakawa-Go Eco-Institute near the Shirakawa-go World Heritage site 700 meters above sea level. The slippery waters of this piping hot, 52° C source spring leave the skin silky smooth. The Toyota Shirakawa-Go Eco-Institute offers visitors a variety of activities which enable them to surround themselves with nature and notice the activities and wisdom of the natural world. Examples include trekking in the virgin forest of Oshirakawa Ravine, on Sanpoiwadake, and amidst the thatch roofed homes of Shirakawa-go; or spending an evening in the thatched roof Shitayama Residence on the Institute's grounds, experiencing what life was once like here when there was no electricity and the only source of light at night was the fire in the central hearth. Staying in the Institute's lodging facilities, visitors can come in contact with the culture and natural beauty of the Shirakawa-go and enjoy relaxing hot spring baths.

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.
