Un auténtico descubrimiento. Íbamos con la idea de ir a Shirakawa-go, pero nos quedamos sin bus, y al final… 🥰 Este museo al aire libre es una maravilla: tradicional, tranquilo, rodeado de naturaleza y muy fácil de recorrer, incluso con un bebé. Las casas históricas están súper bien conservadas, o son reconstrucción no lo tengo muy claro, pero te permiten asomarte a cómo se vivía hace siglos, sin prisas y con mucho encanto. Nos encantó cada rincón y lo recomendamos al 100%, sobre todo si buscas una experiencia cultural auténtica sin complicarte la vida. Un momento de lo más agradable en familia y además te proponen 3 recorridos en función del tiempo que quieras emplear. Ah y nada más entrar tienes atrezzo para hacerte fotos que es gratis, y stamps al inicio de la ruta.

Muy interesante lugar para visitar si estas en Takayama. Fuimos dia de semana, octubre 2025 es temporada baja. Poca gente para disfrutar del lugar y acceder a los interiores de las casas. Te consejo llevar una zapatillas cómodas para ponerte y sacarte ; ya que en Los interiores tenes que sacarte los zapatos.

Merece muchísimo la pena venir y verlo. Da para una hora o un poquito más a buen ritmo. En otoño, en pleno Momiji, es precioso. En la estación de takayama de nohi bus venden un ticket combinado de ida y vuelta + entrada a Hida no Sato, te ahorras 150¥ aprox
