Blessed with large unspoiled forests, Gifu allows visitors to step back in time into how Japan used to be. The thatched roof farm village of Shirakawago (a World Heritage Site) is a must-see, as is the Edo-era town of Hida Takayama. A bit hard to reach for individual travelers, find top tours from major cities (including Kyoto, Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka) which will take you to the heart of this rural gem.
