We visit the beautiful old town of Takayama, walk around trying sake at the breweries, eating noms such as gohei mochi, trying cute cafes and checking out the amazing matsuri floats in the Festival Floats Exhibiton Hall (Yatai Kaikan) and the amazing model of Nikko at the Nikkokan! We then drive to our hotel - the Auberge Hida no Mori, and have the most amazing Italian style dinner prepared by the owners. Thanks for watching!!!
