This is an important shrine from the Edo period. The architecture is elegant and dignified, with unique decorations and a strong sense of history.

Takayama Festival
Takayama Festival has been carefully kept for over 300 years in Takayama City, Gifu. It includes the Sanno Festival (Spring Takayama Festival) held at Hie Shrine in April, and Hachiman Festival (Autumn Takayama Festival) at Sakurayama Hachimangu Shrine. It is known as one of Japan’s Most Beautiful Festivals.
If you come to Japan, you have to experience the local festivals! The unique dances, traditional music, colorful costumes, and energetic cheers fill the festival with so much joy and excitement. You can really feel the lively atmosphere.
