Marco Buch's video: Alternative Japan holidays - The Japanese Alps

If you don't want the standard Japan holidays, follow me through the Hida Takayama region, also known as the Japanese Alps! This video takes us to the beautiful houses of Shirakawa-go where we take a bicycle tour and learn how to make Onigiri. We then head to Hida where we visit the Furukawa Festival site, check out a traditional candle-maker and visit a Sake Factory. We will take an electric bike for a spin on former railroad tracks at Gattan Go and enjoy a traditional Japanese breakfast. Then we head on to Takayama where we visit a shrine and the old government house Takayama Jinya, before checking out a local market and taking a rickshaw. We will enjoy some Soba noodles, enroll in a cooking class and visit the exhibition hall of the floats for the Takayama Matsuri Festival. Another stop is at the workshop where the floats are being repaired. We participate in a traditional tea ceremony and visit a man who's been drawing horses since the Edo era. last but not least I will show you the Hida Osaka Falls and an Onsen experience before praising the local food and the friendliness of the Japanese. If you still don't want to go visit the Japanese Alps after that, well, then I can't really help you! ;-) Disclaimer: I was invited on this trip by the Tourism Board of the Japanese Alps.
