In Onsenkyo of Omachi, Hakuba has a ski resort in winter and an Alps climbing route in summer. Inside Onsenkyo you can find TOMAMU Hoshino Resort. Not only picturesque Alps but also rural experience of pit furnace is here for you. The house in the shape of ptarmigan looks very distinctive.

Narai-juku is the longest Shukuba. It is the most important protection zone of traditional building group in Japan. Many travelers would stay overnight in Narai, so it is also hailed as "Narai of a Thousand Houses". Here people are simple and honest. Walking down the road, I would feel relaxed. If you are interested in traditional architecture, Narai-juku would be a nice choice.

Kamikochi is located on a great RuralJapan route between Matsumoto and Takayama City. If you are looking to get away from the big city and explore the road less traveled, Kamikochi and its surrounding areas have much to offer. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway

One of the most beautiful places i have been to. It’s not really on the main path for most foreigners visiting Japan, but its definitely worth visiting! These are my favorite pictures from my entire two week Japan trip.
