Furukawa-cho in Hida City is a town with an impressive landscape of old white-walled storehouses and waterways. It is known for the beautiful scenery of the Seto River and the carp swimming there, and has a charming, relaxed atmosphere.
Hida Furukawa White-Walled Storehouse District is an atmospheric street located in Hida City, Gifu Prefecture, that has continued since the Edo period. Along the Seto River that flows through the center of the town, white-walled storehouses and old townhouses line the streets, and the scenery makes visitors feel as if they have traveled back in time. In particular, the main feature of this street is the approximately 1,000 colorful carp swimming in the Seto River. The sight of the carp swimming leisurely and the white-walled storehouses weave together gives a feeling of the original Japanese landscape and soothes the soul.

The charm of this white-walled storehouse district is not only its beautiful scenery, but also its calm atmosphere. Unlike the tourist-filled townscape of Takayama, Hida Furukawa is relatively quiet, and you can enjoy a leisurely stroll. The streets are dotted with old-fashioned sake breweries, miso breweries, Japanese confectionery shops, and other establishments, and you can have fun trying local specialties and looking for souvenirs. There is also a workshop where you can observe artisans making traditional crafts up close, allowing you to experience the skills of Hida's master craftsmen.

Hida Furukawa is also known as the holy land of the movie "Your Name," and many fans visit to relive the world of the movie. It is a recommended spot for those who want to enjoy a traditional Japanese townscape at their own pace and spend some quiet time.
