Then you must visit Hide Shrine in Hida Takayama! This shrine has a long history, founded in 1141, also known as the Hidasannomiya Hide Shrine, the main deity is Oyamazajin, also known as Hiyoshiyama King Gongen, is the shrine in charge of the southern half of the old Takayama Castle Town.

#Travel Course Takayama Travel, Finding Hie Shrine, the Background of Your Name Your Name was a huge hit at the time of its release, and I visited Hida, one of the backgrounds here, because Hie Shrine is the background of Takayama. It's a bit far from the traditional Takayama streets. 20-30 minutes? When I see this red gate, I think of the Your Name anime. The scale itself is small. It's quite far to walk, and the place itself is small, so I recommend it if you're just going for a walk in Takayama. The air was really clean, perhaps because it's in the countryside. #Nagoya #Takayama #JapanTravel

Step into Hie Shrine in Takayama, and it feels like you've entered the world of 'Your Name' 🌌. This serene location served as one of the inspirations for the scene where Taki and Mitsuha reunite. The stone steps, vermilion shrine, and forest pathways exude a sacred atmosphere with every step 🍁. Surrounded by towering cedar trees, the shrine offers a tranquil ambiance, making it an ideal spot to visit in the early morning or just before dusk to experience the harmonious blend of Japanese tradition and nature 🌲. Before entering, remember to purify your hands, and take a moment to admire the intricate details and decorations within the shrine that invite you to pause and appreciate 🙏. Unlike more popular tourist destinations, this hidden gem is quieter, allowing you to truly 'feel' the soul of Japan. Whether you're a fan of Makoto Shinkai or not, this secluded shrine is bound to leave a lasting impression 💖. 📍 Hie Shrine, Takayama 🎥 A filming location for 'Your Name' ⏳ Recommended visit duration: About 30 minutes to 1 hour

(Continued from the previous post about Okuhida Hirayu Onsen ♨️) I took a direct bus 🚍 from Hirayu Onsen to Takayama Station early in the morning. The journey took about an hour. My original plan was to go from Takayama to Shirakawa-go 🏠, a World Heritage Site, to see the gassho-style houses. However, the round trip would have taken about 4.5 hours, and with the sightseeing time added, it would have been too rushed, so I decided to skip it.😣 But at the same time, I unexpectedly encountered this historic Edo-era town—[Takayama TAKAYAMA]. Everything truly happens for a reason.🙂 As soon as I got off at the station, I saw many tourists from Europe and the United States. I was quite surprised that a small town in central Japan would attract so many Westerners. They sure know how to find hidden gems! 🧐About Takayama Located in the northern part of Gifu Prefecture, Takayama was once a prosperous castle town and the administrative center of the Hida region. It is famous for its well-preserved Edo-era streets and rich cultural heritage. Traditional Hida wood carvings and Hida beef 🐃 are also quite famous. 🐒Attractions 🏯Sanmachi Suji District The best-preserved Edo-era district in Takayama. The streets are lined with old wooden buildings, now a pedestrian zone, with many lovely craft shops and wagashi (Japanese sweets) shops. 🛖Takayama Jinya The government building of the Hida region during the Edo period, a well-preserved historical building (admission fee required🎫). 🎍Hie Shrine As soon as I entered the gate of Hie Shrine, the scene looked very familiar. I looked it up online and it turned out to be the shrine from Makoto Shinkai's animated film *Your Name.*!! I hadn't planned to visit, but I stumbled upon this sacred place, which was a pleasant surprise. PS: Hie Shrine is dedicated to the local mountain god and is said to be effective for career luck. I also got a "Takayama Matsuri Yatai" goshuincho (red seal book). Their 🦊fox omamori (good luck charms) are also quite cute. 🌰Food 🐃Hida Beef Pink in color and with a unique springy texture, it is perfect for sukiyaki. 🍂Hoba Miso Miso paste grilled on a magnolia leaf. The rich aroma of the soybean paste is delicious, and it's especially good when eaten with fried pork cutlet. 🥯Temari Mochi at Mitsuha There is a century-old sweet shop on the old street called "Mitsuha MITSUHA." Their signature dish is Temariyaki, a waffle filled with mochi (rice cake), matcha soup, fruit, etc., sandwiched together to resemble a traditional temari (handball) craft. It's super cute! 🍡Mitarashi Dango A famous Takayama snack, these are glutinous rice dumplings brushed with soy sauce. They have a chewy texture and a rich soy sauce flavor, and a skewer is only 100 yen! 🫓Hida Beef Manju It's said to be filled with cheese and Hida beef, and the bun is even stamped with a 🐃logo. It looks very tempting!😍 🐇Miffy Pastry Shop I'm not a fan of the Miffy IP, but as soon as I stepped inside, my inner child went wild!! It's a kawaii paradise. Whether it's wagashi or merchandise, everything is incredibly cute. I felt like my wallet wouldn't survive if I stayed too long.🙃

✨Overview of the itinerary: Day1 Nagoya-Hirayu day2 Hirayu-Shinhotaka day3 Shinhotaka-Takayama day4 Takayama day5 Takayama-Nagoya ✨Day1 Nagoya-Hirayu Accommodation: Hirayu Onsen Hotel Take the 10 o'clock bus to Takayama in the morning. The journey takes 2.5 hours. Get off at Takayama Nohi Bus Terminal. Buy a 3-day pass including Shinhotaka Cable Car (7500 yen per person). Then you can take the bus to Hirayu according to the schedule. It will arrive in half an hour and check in at 3 o'clock. I booked a tatami room with one night and two meals. After arriving, I can soak in the hot springs, have dinner, and rest in the hotel! There's not much to do around Hirayu, be sure to book an interesting hotel + restaurant. ✨Day2 Hirayu-Shinhotaka Accommodation: Yamano hoel After checking out at 11am, head to Shinhotaka Hotel (0.5 hour drive). Yamano Hot Spring Hotel is recommended, with the station right outside the door. The weather was nice and check-in was not until 3 o'clock, so after putting down my luggage I headed for the Shinhotaka Ropeway. We played until 3 o'clock and returned to the hotel, just in time to check in, soak in the hot springs, have dinner, and rest in the hotel. ✨Day3 Shinhotaka-Takayama Accommodation: Takayama Sakuan A hot spring hotel with a very high cost performance. After arriving, we went to Gaoshan Old Street to eat handmade soba noodles, and then strolled around the old street today. The old street is interesting, with many boutiques and sake drinking shops, and the blind box sake cup tasting is here. ✨Day4 Takayama One-day Tour Accommodation: Takayama Sakuran Originally planned to go to Shirakawa-go, but after reading the reviews, I decided to give up and choose Takayama One-day Tour: Miyagawa Morning Market-Takayama Jinya-Hie Shrine-Hida Folk Village ✨Day5 Takayama-Nagoya Special Recommendation: ❄️❄️If you feel that you change hotels too frequently, you can stay in a hot spring hotel in Shin-Hotaka for 2 nights, because Shin-Hotaka has a cable car to play. I highly recommend the hotels I stayed in. The accommodation was nice, the food was good, and the price/performance ratio was good. ❄️❄️I stayed in the annex of Hirayu, Shinyama Sakuraan Hirayu, which is about 1,000 cheaper than the main building, but you can also go to the main building (just next door) to experience the hot springs, which is very nice!

Hida Sannoh Hie Shrine is the perfect place for a pilgrimage to the holy land of the movie "Your Name"! This shrine is said to have been the model for the "shrine that Taki and Mitsuha visit" that appears in the story. It's a wonderful spot where you can feel that scene from the movie in a real way! First of all, when you stand at the entrance of the shrine, you feel as if you've entered the movie. When you pass through the historic red torii gate, the spectacular view from there is overwhelming 😲 In the grounds surrounded by the surrounding mountains, time flows quietly, and you feel as if you are being drawn into the world of the movie. In addition, while strolling through the grounds, you can imagine the "place where Taki meets Mitsuha" that you saw in the movie. The scenery of that scene spreads out in front of you in a real way! When you walk along the approach to the shrine, you will feel as if you are walking the same path that the two walked in the movie ✨ And the tranquility and mysterious atmosphere of the shrine itself matches perfectly with the fantastical world of the movie. If you are a fan of the movie, this place is sure to warm your heart! Experience the excitement of "Your Name" once again with the beautiful scenery of the shrine! Please take a pilgrimage to the sacred site and spend a special time at Hida Sannou Hie Shrine while experiencing the scenes from the movie in real life✨ ⚠️Caution During the snowy season, the snow freezes and is slippery! Please wear shoes with anti-slip properties or walk in areas without snow! The snow is so beautiful that you will want to walk on it, but the stairs are like a ski slope, so it is almost impossible to walk without slipping and is quite scary, so we do not recommend it😱 #Seasonal places in Japan #Amazing views #Takayama

I don’t know if you have seen the animation "Your Name". The hometown of the heroine in the animation is in the Hida area, and the "Hie Shrine" in Takayama City is one of the scenes. The shrine is also called "Hida" "Mountain King's Palace". 📍 No. 156, Chengshan, Takayama City 🚊 About 20 minutes walk from Takayama Station 🕰 08:30 – 16:30 "Hie Shrine" is not far from the old town of Takayama. It can be known as the "Hidasan Palace". In spring, the "Takayama Festival" that is listed as a world intangible cultural heritage is held at "Hie Shrine". Naturally, you can think of it in the local area. It is extremely famous, but it is not as large as "Ise Jingu" and "Meiji Jingu", but it has another sense of tranquility, simplicity and elegance. The history of the shrine is more than 800 years old. Although the current shrine was rebuilt after the flood, some of its "treasures" have been preserved to this day. You will also see many giant cedar trees at "Hie Shrine". The oldest cedar tree is 43 meters high and is over 1,000 years old! As the guardian shrine of the southern region of Takayama City, with its quiet and comfortable environment and the ability to recreate scenes from "Your Name", I recommend everyone to visit it when visiting Takayama City. #JapaneseAttractions #OverseasTravel #Japan #Gifu県 #高山市 #Hieda Shrine #Shrine #Your Name #Animation Check-in Position #japan #君の名は

"Your Name" Holy Land Tour, Gongshui Shrine, which appeared in the place where Sanye lived in the movie, has not yet found a completely similar place, so there are two kinds of sayings in the city of Hida. The most recognized one is the Qiduogong Shrine, and the other is the Nikko Sayama Shrine. On the 19th and 20th of each year, the Furukawa Festival, one of Japans three largest naked sacrifices, will be held. After the night, hundreds of men will barely lift up the huge Taiko parade in the cold season. Hidayama Palace Nikko Shrine was founded in 1141 and is said to protect the safety of the whole family. It is said that the "Mountain King Sacrifice" on April 14th and 15th of each year of the Hida Shrine is the most famous. The "King of the Kings" is known as the "mountain festival of the spring." It is one of the three most beautiful rituals in Japan, together with the ancestral festival of Kyoto and the Chichibu night festival of Saitama. One of the most interesting places is the presence of the dolls on the three roofs. The so-called dolls are the dolls and models and mechanical devices of Japan's traditional mechanical devices. They are controlled by several nets and remotely controlled by remote speakers. Just like a living person, the gesture of his activity is worth seeing. The spouse service was held once in the morning and afternoon on the 14th and 15th. The time is about 50 minutes at a time. In addition, there is a night temple fair that will only be held on the evening of the 14th. Several roofs that lit up 100 lanterns cruised the streets. Only one day can be seen in a year. If time permits, you must look at the dreamy and beautiful picture.
