Those snowy village pictures are calendar worthy! *___________* The stream shot with the virgin snow on the rocks and the shore is awesome. Thanks for sharing!

Did you ever visit Shirakawago? ^-^
And thanks a lot :D

[leviosa8]

No, never went around that area. : )

Thank you so much for this post!!! I'll be going to Shirakawago in April~ but I couldn't find any people who wrote about it in as much detail and pictures as you! In my guidebook, it says that you can stay there??? Sounds really awesome! I love this place! I wanna see it for myself! I heard that the anime "Higurashi no naku koro ni" setting was inspired from this place!

[chochajin]

Yes, that's right! ^-^ You can stay in some of those houses overnight :D As I didn't do it, I can't tell you any details, though.
Wow, in April with all the cherry blossoms it must be so beautiful there as well!! ^-^

No wonder that they used it as inspiration :D

Wirklich schöne Bilder - und ja, sehr europäisches Flair, vor allem die "Übersichtbilder" könnten von meinen Winterurlauben in Österreich sein. :D

[chochajin]

Genau das hatte ich auch gedacht!! XD

So pretty!
One of my friends lived in Takayama for 2 years - I really should have gone and visited him while I had the chance! Ah well.

Well, you still can go there for vacation whenever you want to ^-^
