Takayama (Short trip from Nagoya)

 

We made a short trip to Takayama-city, in Gifu prefecture in December 29-30!
You may have heard of the city since there were many many travellers from overseas.

It takes about 4 hours from Nagoya to Takayama by train (JR).

Usually, Japanese train system is quite punctual, however, if it's snowing in winter, you are gonna have to expect some delay.
