Sanmachi Traditional Buildings Preservation Area
The Kamimachi area flourished as a commercial center in Hida Takayama and is lined with traditional townhouses, many of which are historically significant structures. A distinctive feature is the beautiful townscape of continuous wooden latticework and the clear water channels that run beneath the eaves. The area is also known for its thriving sake brewing industry, with numerous sake breweries marked by spherical ornaments made of cedar leaves hanging at their entrances. Additionally, the area is popular with tourists for its many eateries serving local ingredients and its array of souvenir shops.
