Shirakawa-go
Took a bus from Kanazawa to Takayama. The bus travels through the mountains and makes a brief rest stop at Shirakawa-go. Shirakawa-go's traditional grass roofed buildings are heritage listed. It was raining on this bus trip and it seemed to get heavier when we got out for this stop. Not a lot to see and do at this time of year, looks like a better winter destination, certainly not much we could do in the 15 minutes we had, so just grabbed a postcard book, looked at a few model before splashing our way back to the bus.
