  • Garyuzakura
    Travel / Tourism
    Gifu Pref. Takayamashi Ichinomiyamachi 275-1 In Wolong Park
    A famous lonesome cherry tree located in Takayama City. Records show this tree was growing here 1,100 years ago. The tree’s name means “Reclining Dragon Cherry” and alludes to the tree’s low hung branches which again take root in the ground, giving it the appearance of a dragon lying down. The surrounding area was once the grounds of the Daito-ji Temple but was turned into Garyu Park in 1989. A cherry blossom festival is held here each year in mid-April. In 1973, the tree was designated a National Natural Monument.

With water games, activities blowing enormous bubbles, a specialty bazaar, and lots more, it's a Kuguno summer tradition.

  • Sakurano Park
    Travel / Tourism
    Gifu Takayama-shi Kokufucho Hirosemachi 510-1
    This park is one of the Hida region's best-known cherry blossom viewing spots. It's said to have gotten its start with the transplanting of 500 saplings of seven cherry varieties grown at Mt. Yoshino in the late Nanbokucho period. Meiji period development and heavy rains during the Heisei period saw its area reduced. Today about 300 Yoshino and double weeping rosebud cherry trees line 600 meters of the Miyagawa River. They are lit up at night during the mid-April full bloom period, creating a marvelous atmosphere. It has been selected as one of the 33 Best Places to View Cherry Blossom in the Hida-Mino region.

    Gifu Takayama-shi Shiroyama
    This 25-hectare park is the largest in Takayama City. It's on the site of Takayama Castle, which is said to have taken Kanamori Nagachika, the lord of Hida Province, 16 years to complete. Popular with the locals, it centers on the Ninomaru Park and has walking paths, playground equipment, an open plaza, and an arbor. There are also about 700 Yoshino cherry trees, and visitors enjoy seeing the blossoms while taking in a view of the town. They're typically at their peak in mid-April. Engulfed in silence and surrounded by abundant nature, the park has been selected as one of the Top 100 Forested Valleys in Japan.

  • Subzero Forest (Hyotenka no Mori)
    Travel / Tourism
    Gifu Takayama-shi Asahicho Kurumijima 355
    "Located about an hour from Hida Takayama, one can find winterly features at Akigami Onsen at the foot of Mt. Ontake. This old winterland dates back to 1971. It is an ice forest that is prepared from around September every year with a water supply hose of about 600 meters in a site of about four hectares. You can enjoy a world of brilliant color that is blue during the day and lit up at night. When the cold is particularly severe, we host a ""bubble ball experience"", where you can witness bubble balls freezing in the air and not breaking even when they fall to the ground."
  • Shokawa-zakura
    Travel / Tourism
    Gifu Pref. Takayamashi Shoukawachounakano
    The Shokawa-zakura, designated as a Natural Monument by Gifu Prefecture, is an ancient sakura tree over 500 years old, sitting on the bank at Miboro Dam. This tree was going to be sunk during the destruction of the dam, but in a surprising turn of events, people rallied together to transfer the tree to this new location, saving its life. It continues to bloom today, and is best seen between late April and early May.

    Gifu Takayama-shi Okuhida Onsenkyo

    新穂高ロープウェイの始発で西穂高口まで上がると、山頂付近は次第に雲に覆われ、西穂高口展望台からは西穂高や笠ヶ岳など周辺のやや低い山々が何とか見える程度でした。長靴を履いて上って行ったので、西穂高口の駅を出て、積雪の頂の森を散策しました。前年の秋に作られたという槍の回廊という新しい展望台では、残念ながら槍ヶ岳を見ることはできませんでしたが、ロープの網の上を歩いて少しスリルを感じられました。

    飛騨に飛行場がるのを知らず道路にある看板を見て立ち寄りました。滑走路もしっかりありますが肝心の飛行機は一機もいません。何に使われているかわかりませんが話のネタにはなるかな？
