The Gifu prefecture is on the northern side of Nagoya, Japan. Gifu is divided into two regions characterized by their contrasting climate and traditions. To the north is the Hida region while to the south is the Mino region. The Hida region is home to the Shirakawa-go heritage site, traditional villages such as Hida-Takayama, and the magical hot spring of Gero Onsen. The Mino region offers scenic waterways such as Monet’s Pond and Nagara River, which is famous for Cormorant fishing or Ukai. The prefecture is home to astonishing art in museums and galleries such as The Site of Reversible Destiny and Mosaic Tile Museum Tajimi. Visit Gifu and enjoy more of its amazing sights.
