2025 Gifu Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in August)

Located just a 5-minute walk from JR Gifu Station, "Iroha" offers a completely private sauna experience. When you think of private saunas, you might imagine them being expensive and out of reach. However, this facility is surprisingly affordable, starting at around 2,400 yen per person. The sauna rooms come in three types: - "Regular" for up to 2 people - "Large" for up to 3 people - "VIP" for up to 4 people Each room can also be used by just one person. I personally tried the "Regular" room. For sauna enthusiasts, this facility is a dream come true, as it allows for self-pouring of water over the hot stones (self-löyly). The cold water bath is also set at the perfect temperature for ultimate relaxation. Each sauna is equipped with amenities such as shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and even a hair dryer. Towels are provided as well, making it a convenient option for those who want to visit empty-handed. After the sauna, I enjoyed a bowl of incredibly addictive, authentic tantanmen at the nearby #Greenyang.

Gifu Castle, located on Mount Kinka in Gifu City, is not only a significant cultural heritage site but also a paradise for hiking enthusiasts. This time, I decided to challenge myself by climbing to Gifu Castle and experiencing the beautiful forest journey. Anticipation at the Start Early in the morning, I took public transportation to Gifu City and then walked to the Kinka Ropeway Station following the signs. Along the way, I felt the tranquility and beauty around me, with lush greenery and fresh air invigorating my spirit. The ropeway ride took about ten minutes, and through the glass windows, I enjoyed the scenic views as the majestic landscape of Mount Kinka gradually unfolded before my eyes. The Challenge of the Hiking Route After reaching the upper ropeway station, I began my hike up the mountain. Although the distance to Gifu Castle was not long, it required some physical effort. The path was lined with dense trees and colorful flowers, prompting me to stop and savor the gifts of nature. Along the way, I encountered other hikers, and we encouraged each other, cheering each other on. As the altitude increased, the path became steeper, and I felt the allure and challenge of the exercise. My breathing quickened, my heart rate increased, but I also felt the joy of achieving my goal. There were several observation decks along the way where I paused to enjoy the beautiful scenery and overlook the spectacular view of Gifu City. The Joy of Reaching Gifu Castle After some effort, I finally arrived at the gates of Gifu Castle. The castle's exterior was ancient and majestic, as if telling me stories of history. The castle was originally built in 1583 by the famous Sengoku warlord Oda Nobunaga and later became a symbol of Gifu. Inside the castle, I was captivated by the exquisite architecture and ancient artifacts. The castle houses a museum displaying many items related to Gifu Castle and its history. Here, I not only learned about the castle's past but also experienced the life and culture of the people at that time. A Stunning Viewing Experience The most anticipated part was the observation deck of Gifu Castle. Standing at the highest point of the castle, I overlooked the entire Gifu City and the surrounding mountains. The magnificent scenery made my heart surge with excitement. The distant Gifu Bridge and Nagara River shimmered like a ribbon under the setting sun. This moment of beauty made me appreciate the value and significance of hiking. Conclusion The journey to Gifu Castle was not only a physical challenge but also a spiritual cleansing. The grandeur of nature intertwined with the profound human history made me deeply appreciate the beauty of life. If you also love hiking and exploring, consider climbing to Gifu Castle to experience the wonderful journey of nature and history.

If you go through the JR Gifu Station "Central North Exit", you will see a square called "Nobunaga Yume Square" in front of you. The golden statue beyond is the "Golden Nobunaga Statue". The stairs connecting "Nobunaga Yume Square" to the second floor deck are called "Nobunaga Yume Stairs". I have always been curious about the Nobunaga statue, which can be seen from the JR train. It is a little high up, so I recommend a high-performance camera to capture his expression. It seems that "Oda Nobunaga" is still loved by the local people in Gifu, and you will see his name wherever you go. This time, many food trucks gathered at "Nobunaga Yume Square". There was also a performance by people dressed in costumes from the Sengoku period! The performance of a person who seemed to be Nobunaga defeating enemies with a sword was a delight for tourists. Many events are held at "Nobunaga Yume Square". Why not visit Gifu to see the "Golden Nobunaga Statue"? There is also a Gifu Bus JR Gifu Information Center nearby, so please use it as a reference for sightseeing. 100m from JR Gifu Station 290m from Meitetsu Gifu Station "Golden Nobunaga Statue" 1-100 Hashimotocho, Gifu City, Gifu Prefecture 500-8856 #Gifu #GifuTrip #GifuTourism #OdaNobunaga #WalkingaroundGifu #DomesticTrip

Although the autumn season is already over, the autumn leaves were so beautiful that it was worth a stroll. Kyoto and other places are popular during the autumn foliage season, but if you look around you will find many quieter, more relaxed places where you can take beautiful photos of the autumn leaves. I definitely recommend visiting Gifu as well.
