Shirakawago Travel Guide (白川郷) | Most Beautiful Place We Visited in Japan
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
- Join us on a day trip to Shirakawago in this travel guide as we explore the most beautiful place we visited in Japan. Shirakawa-go (白川郷) is known for its traditional Japanese farmhouses (gassho) - also known as the praying hand houses for its a-frame shape - in a valley surrounded by mountains. The trip from Takayama was approximately 50 minutes away and cost roughly $20 USD per person.
Our first stop in Shirakawa was the observatory where we had sweeping panoramic views of the incredible architecture and mountains from a high vantage point which cost 200 Yen per person for the local bus. In terms of getting back down, we decided to walk which ended up being a great idea.
Walking around Shirakawago Village you notice houses, shops, rice paddies, and people out doing laundry. We visited in summer; however, every season offers a unique atmosphere in the village. Something fascinating is that cold drinks are refrigerated with mountain running water and trash is to be carried and disposed of by guests.
To cool down we grabbed our first bite which was a refreshing green-tea matcha ice cream for 350 Yen per person. Our next stop was the outdoor open-air museum (600 Yen per person), which ended up being one of our favorite attractions, visiting temples and crossing bridges along the way. We grabbed soba and tempura for lunch.
In the open air museum we visited waterfalls, streams and gassho houses. We ended up just hopping from farmhouse to farmhouse to call down enjoying some free tea along the way.
We visited the Old Fujisaki House where it was free and cool inside.

Shirakawago Travel Guide (白川郷) | Most Beautiful Place We Visited in Japan:
Hey guys! We are Samuel and Audrey, a vlogging travel couple from Canada. In this travel channel we share our travel and food vlogs while touring the world. Our most recent trip was to Japan where we spent 2 months traveling around the country and visiting the following destinations: Osaka, Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, Nikko, Takayama, Yokohama, Odaiba, Shirakawa-gō and Takao.
During our stay, we visited a mixture of big cities and small rural towns, where we enjoyed eating Japanese street food, trying traditional Japanese cuisine, visiting local attractions and staying in unique accommodations (such as capsule hotels and ryokans) that we are now going to share with you on this channel. The combination and contrast of visiting futuristic cities and traditional countryside areas is what makes travel to Japan so fascinating. Ultra modern versus traditional. This is the essence of Japan.
Our trip to Japan was unforgettable and until now it is one of our favorite countries that we have come to know. However, we only feel as though we just scratched the surface on this trip to Japan. If you want to see more videos from Japan in the future, let us know in the comments that places you'd like us to travel to and food experiences you would like to see on this travel channel.
Have you traveled to Japan before? What was your experience like? Please share your Japan travel tips, advice and experiences in the comments below.
Thanks again for watching our Japan series! Until next time!

Damn I was waiting for this comment 😂😂😂

Hi
I cannot get over how natural and at ease Japanese villages look in the environment, they look perfect! Stunning!
this is one of my favorite place to visit in Japan. so peaceful... I also love the town of Takayama
Wonderful village.I'll come one day
The dip source is both for Soba noodles and Tenpura fried foods. But the salt is only for Tenpura. It seems it is strange to sprinkle salt over Soba. Anyway I hope you enjoyed them.
exactly...it is so funny...
直訳の日本語が、とてもユニーク。日本を楽しまれているようで、良かった。
welcome to Japan! have fun!
How beautiful!!! This is so far my favourite video of your Japanese trip!!! And the music supporting this video is divine!!! Love to both of you!
Absolutely fantastic and fabulous travel vlog, I really enjoy watching. big thumbs up and have a great week.
Best video. Great editing..sheer beauty. Such a lovely country. What a cute town. We learn so much from you. Thanks so much✅❤️💋
The nature is so pure, green mountain, blue sky...all are wonderful lovely. Thanks for sharing beautiful cinematic of Shirakawago....
Your vlogs in Japan have been so special, I can't wait to visit. Just watching the different levels of environments throughout this journey, is captivating. Thanks for showing us all.
Thank you very much, Marcus! Japan far exceeded our expectations. Oddly enough we ended up enjoying the rural areas more than the big famous cities. If we were to revisit again in the future we'd prioritize exporing more rural areas.
Been here last winter and indeed it is the most beautiful sight to see in Japan. The gasho-zukuri farmhouses looks even more magical covered under a blanket of snow!
So beautiful place. Lovely video
Thankyou so much for showing such a beautiful place.loved it.hope to see more of beautiful places.
Thank you very much Sheetal! We just loved visiting.
Right guys it is so beautiful place in Japan as you tell :) Japan is stunning and on my wish -list. Maybe one day I will see some Japan :) maybe :) and of course I'm waiting for the next videos guys ..
You guys are getting more adorable after every video. I love you guys making videos of such historic places. Arigato Gozaimasu
It's nice.
Enjoy the rest of your stay in Japan.
Yum! Dipping cold soba noodles into the dipping broth so perfect in the summer. Another nice leg in your trip from last year. I like the leisurely pace of rural portion of the trip. 👍
That has to be the coolest way to keep drinks cool! Spring water! But Shirakawago is such a beautiful town and makes for an amazing day trip.
Such a clever system!
What gorgeous views.
Thanks for sharing.
Shirakawa-gō was by far my favorite place we visited. We went in the fall and loved the cooler weather and colorful foliage but this was great to see it in another light. Great video!
That's so cool! It must be stunning in autumn.
Omg! What a beautiful place! I think I would choose spring or fall for the weather.
Hi Audrey and Sam ... loving your Japan series. I fell in love with the beauty of the inland sea when I lived in Japan, hope you get to go there. Thank you for a glimpse into some places that I never got to visit!
Cold noodles in summer .... the best!!!!
Bellísimo lugar, increíble, fue como pasar la línea del tiempo.
Gracias por soportar el calor y compartir esta aventura.
Saludos 🙋♀️
Always wanted to go here 🤗
This is a wonderful video that even I, a Japanese who has visited here once, want to go again.
Thank you very much! That is great to hear. We'd love to visit again someday in the winter.
君達は本当に素晴らしい方法で日本を紹介しているね。ありがとう。
Watching all your Japan videos again to get some ideas Great videos
Thanks Effie! One of our favorite countries of all time to visit.
Sending my love to both of you guys!! It's my "dream dream" to go there this summer. Thanks for this video , It will be part of our itinerary.
This is the number one place i want to visit in the world, so beautiful.
It must be a wonderland in winter with a dusting of snow.
Hope you had a great time in Shirakawago! Actually I have yet to visit there!! Maybe someday!!
Thanks! We just loved it. It sure is an amazing place. Would love to see it in winter.
I love it!! I'll deftly go next time when I visit Japan. ; )
Another epic video with lots of cool shots 👍🏻👍🏻
We just visited Shirakawago in late April 2019, during the latter days of the cherry blossoms. It was a bit drizzly when we visited but we enjoyed it tremendously. Thanks for giving us a more in-depth experience of this lovely village. I agree.... winter would be gloriously beautiful.
Thanks! Great to hear about your experience.
Wow japan has much to offer. I love the vibes feels like im in a new world were there is no pollution.
It is beautiful in these region Jerry.
@@samuelandaudrey Indeed. I am planning to visit there soon. You may also feature Philippines next time.
I keep running across you guy's in utube land, you're everywhere I've been or want to go. In my opinion (and it's a qualified by many years in the film and visual design business opinion) you've got the classiest colour and edit touch going. That whole worked hard to look effortless thing. Very shibuya.
Thank you very much, Brian! I hope some of our videos have helped you planning your travels.
Thank you for this video. I’m going there this November. Can’t wait ! 💕
Great travel journalism! I truly enjoyed the vlog. Thank you guys!
Yummy! I love your video, thank you for sharing.
Thanks Paulina! Much appreciated!
Watching your Japan series again I just love those videos and I just Love Japan cannot wait to visit
Thank you very much Effie! Ah, we so miss Japan. We'd love to visit more rural places if we go back.
I’ve seen pictures of Shirakawagie so many times, it must be amazing to be there for real. It didn’t look like there were too many tourists there either.
yes i have seen the place to but thats only because wonderful people like you and others take old buggers like me on my sofa travels
thank u for guiding me here, Coz soon we will be there and were very exited, I've enjoyed watching
What an interesting place in Japan! I found it so beautiful and different from what I expect to see in the country.
It's quite the contrast to the big cities, for sure!
What a stunning place!
Japanese countryside is breathtaking.
Thanks for sharing this video... very nice!
Thank you very much! It sure is! Would love to visit in winter as well.
@@samuelandaudrey come to Shiga prefercture in winter...its amazing and Mt. Ibuki is a very nice destination somehow still not covered with tourists 👍
Oh gosh that looks so beautiful 😍
That place is truly incredible and gorgeous. It’s like going back to the old school japan. There are so many gorgeous places like this in japan that makes you feel like your in old japan and nothing like the high tech city’s of japan.
Thanks Samantha! It sure is beautiful.
I visited shiragawa go last year and it was snowing heavily. It was absolutely breathtaking
beautiful mountains . I wanted one of those ice creams too
Perfect way to cool down with those matcha ice creams!
I 've been expecting to see your video about Shirakawa-go , you finally get there , that's the ultimate goal to visit Takayama.
We hope it was worth the wait! We loved our day trip there.
Hi Audrey and Sam, we just came back from Shirakawa-go and thanks to your video, we knew to take the shuttle van up to the observatory point as soon as the bus from Takayama dropped us off. We also took it down as we saw many cars zipping up and it didn’t feel safe walking down. Thanks for the video!
We're so happy to hear that travel tip came in handy. We hope you enjoyed Shirakawa-go and wishing you a great trip around Japan. 😊
How lovely Mr. Cone Flakes is.
Really thank you for comming to and enjoying Japan!!!
Thank you very much! We just loved Japan.
By God this is amazing! I still can't believe there is so much greenery there with a significant population on a relatively small island. Unbelievably awesome!
I mean, look at this perfection 😍😍😍
Japan has a good 50% (or even more) of all the beauty of the world!
It really looks like Switzerland, that green 💚
P.S. I love the music you choose for this video!
I was there in the early spring with wet snow on the ground. Very tranquil. It looks like there are so much going on in the summer. BTW, the salt is for the tempura and the soy sauce (actually, it’s a mixture of soy sauce and other things) is for dipping the cold noodle and tempura.
古き良き日本の風景、世界遺産の白川郷。
Love Japan vlogs 💖💕
Thank you very much!
I love those Japanese houses they so cute!
We love4d Japan as well!
So you want to take a house home with you?! Hauu
old-style wooden houses were designed to capture summer natural wind . such houses have indoor wind route and keep rooms cool, without air-conditioning machines.
Yup, we noticed it was quite cool and breezy, especially on the 2nd and 3rd floors of the farmhouses.
I have been there, Hida Takayama & Shirakawa-Gou 20 years ago, while I was
living in Nagoya, Japan with my ex partner. Yes! Walked on the attic, and it squeaked !
We also went to Takayama Art & Glass Museum, which is graded 3 stars ⭐️ in Michelin Guide.
There is also Teddy Bear Museum/ Eco Village, but we did not go there at that time.
I am glad that you guys seem to be enjoying very much. 🤗🤗🤗
So nice to hear that you visited too! We loved the place.
It's so beautiful my gosh 😍💕
How beautiful! Looks like somewhere straight from an anime! 😍
My all time favorite one uses this. It's called Higurashi.
Your name is Rika but your picture is Rena.
Me he enamorado de esos hermosos lugares!!! La comida se ve deliciosa!! La forma en la que describen todo es muy especial. Son excelentes youtubers!! Saludos Samuel y Audrey desde Oaxaca México!!!
Muchas gracias, Marlene! 😊
Sometimes I get dizzy at the amount you zoom in and out, in, out.. like at the tempura, but wonderful video. What a lovely trip, wish to see it myself sometime ^^
Clean and peaceful 👍👍
My lockscreen spotlight today showed this Shiraklawa-go. It is beautiful, so I seached about it.
Very cool! It's a great spot - I hope you get to see it in person. 😊
What a coincidence. I am your channel's subscriber & I was in Shirakawago just yesterday.
Spent the day today at Takayma. In fact now I'm in the Meitetsu bus on my way back to Nagoya.
I used to regularly watch your Japan videos before visiting Japan. You guys Rock ✌️😊
Amazing! How did you enjoy Shirakawa-go and Takayama?!
@@samuelandaudrey They were stunning. Really enjoyed Takayama's Old Town. I must really commend the Japanese for the ways they have been able to preserve such ancient towns & traditions despite being so modern & technologically advanced at the same time.
love your videos, and def adding this to my next trip to japan!
but i had to cringe when you guys were eating soba noodles lol.
I was hesitant at first but now this is a MUST
Great to hear!
Nice trip video and nice cornfrost! Thanks.
Your vid made me feel to eat soba noodle plus wasabi, which is a great combination^^ and crunchy tempra right away! Thanks for this episode, buddy!
Omg higurashi when they cry brought me here I really want to visit😢
Amazing place
it feels like that i'm travel back in time because of this beautiful scenery. so peaceful place, so serene and quiet. it feels
Ike you don't have to worry about anything. A good place to relax.
When I went there in winter,. it was magical but very cold & snowing❄️ The summer view is so beautiful on your video but maybe it was way too hot for you?😅
Btw, the salt was for Tempura actually. People prefer to eat some kind of Tempura with salt. In my case, 🍤, 🐟 & 🍃.
Re: the salt, maybe these dining experts will learn and acknowledge it some day.
とても素敵な動画をありがとうございます
I been here few weeks ago, wonderful !
What I always feel is that the landscapes of Japan and Korea are very similar
In some ways they are.
Omg, i went to shirakawagi at snow season
Wow! Must be amazing in the winter!
Audrey knows exactly how animals feel - "Oooo, there's a rice cake in there." rofl
素晴らしい!
I'm Japanese, but I've never been there!
That's where I want to go!
Very cool to hear! Highly recommend visiting.
so yeah!! nice video!
こんにちは。日本人です。
日本のことを好きになってくれてありがとう
Hi Sam, Japanese countryside is so beautiful! Wonder how they manage to maintain both cities and countryside with utmost discipline and care without disturbing the environment! Love Japan and Sam and Audrey's Japan series :-)
Super nice video you guys. Thanks! :)
Thank you very much Cam! This is a beautiful place to visit in Japan.
また日本に来て下さ〜い 🤗
That place looks like Heaven.
It is remarkable Evelyn!
No doubt
Going here in Winter time! Can’t wait 😍😍😍
Exciting to hear!
Salting the noodles... and eating the noodles from the tip of them... that totally blew my Japanese mind😂 Very helpful video tho👍
Nippon done best of best environmental protection!So we found whole country of Japan beautiful and comfortable landscapes!Nippon started theirs hard working since W.W. ll to nowadays!So Nippon no. 1 of the world environmental protection!
It looks beautiful. Jelly like jello. Great video as always =)
wow beautiful place 😍
Thank you very much Eli!
Good, like this. I hope can go to shirakawa go
That is great to hear! Hope you can go soon!
be surrounded by a rich natural environment.🧐
Thanks! We're finding more and more we prefer this over anything else :)
This is great recording! I'll be going to Japan in July.
Awesome trip! Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Tokyo!
Thank you very much!
I just booked my stay out in the area... super excited. Wish I could stay at nice places like you guys do but alas I am a budgeted traveler. I will be setting aside a budget to try all the yummy food form the area that you introduced to us. I guess it is better to splurge on the food and experience as opposed to accommodation. Although, I do want to work in a night at a Ryokan like you all did. I will be here during winter so I think it will be that more magical and I hope there will be no need for AC, lol.
That is so cool to hear Edgar! Visiting during winter will be a great experience.
