Hi, I’m Tabi!

Hida City in northern Gifu offers Furukawa streets and festival culture. Distinguish it from the wider Hida region and Takayama City; begin at one Furukawa stop.

This guide covers places within Hida, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

A first-visit stop

Seto Canal and White-Walled Storehouses

瀬戸川と白壁土蔵街

Explore the canal and white-walled storehouses of Furukawa. Respect private homes and shops, and keep narrow paths clear. Carp are moved to another pond in winter and are not present year-round.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02

A first-visit stop

Hida Furukawa Festival Hall

飛騨古川まつり会館

Learn about Furukawa festival floats and culture through exhibitions; the live festival does not run every day. An official notice covers float replacement in late October2026, so check current displays and admission arrangements.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

City tourism guides introduce potato croquettes containing Hida beef. Check beef, potato, coating and sauce ingredients and allergies. This does not imply every ingredient comes from Hida or guarantee a shop’s current menu, prices or quality.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try the first destination’s permitted entrance → public areas. Choose the other stop after checking separate transport and access.

Check the walking route

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

Before you set off

  • Check entry arrangements and return transport first.
  • Choose one stop to suit weather, slopes and local restrictions.
  • Respect private areas and photography rules; check food ingredients locally.
