    We stayed four days in Takayama last week and felt like we should have stayed five days. 😊 We strolled for a day. Tried hida beef & local foods. 😋Visited Hida Folk Village at night. Went to Honoki Ski resort for a day, went to Shirakawago & Ainokura for a day and the following day went to Takayama Souvenir Shop before leaving Takayama. Loving the apple chou and apple biscuit the one with the diamond taste award. If only we could spare for just another day to stroll Takayama again... Takayama has so much to offer especially for nature lovers like us. My husband and I fell in love with Takayama, we watched your videos since last year and your Takayama videos were the ones that paved our way to visit there. Thank you for all your tips. ❤️

I draw inspiration from talented creators and good pieces of material such as this. You're awesome. Keep doing you!

      I love Takayama. On every Japan holiday so far we've visited and stayed in a different ryokan each time. It's pretty in Spring and Autumn, but it's magical in winter under a blanket of snow.
      I'd love to see a Centre4 video from you. Get the Hida Beef burger. It's amazing.

    I wasn't too sure about my 2 days in Takayama coming up in March, but after watching this video, I am positive it will be great! If I try to increase my stay to 3 days instead of 2 days in Takayama, then it might be at the expense of visiting Kanazawa. What do you think about that? Should I forgo visiting Kanazawa all together or should I just decrease my stays in Kyoto or other cities instead?
    Thank you for your help!

    • @Japanesquest
      @Japanesquest  Před 5 lety

      I have to say that the Takayama loses its charm a little bit in the early December after the fall foliage and before the snow season.
      Shirakawago on the other hand is always enjoyable. Though please note that it may already be snow in the early December.
      Hope this helps!

    • @Japanesquest
      @Japanesquest  Před 6 lety

      Hi, sorry for the late reply!
      Hmm, I haven't received any message from the Contact page. Sorry, I will look into it. Thanks!
      To answer your question,
      I personally think Takayama is way better than Nagoya. In my opinion, there is not much to see in Nagoya.
      Nara, on the other hand, is a great place to explore. Since you are coming in the first week of April, I would say Nara is slightly better since it is a great period for cherry blossoms. In Takayama, cherry blossoms season is usually in the middle of April.
      But all in all, both are great places, and I am sure you will enjoy your time whichever you visit!
