What I learned on our autumn trip to Shirakawa-go
The UNESCO World Heritage Site of Shirakawa-go is nested deep in the mountainous Hida region of Gifu Prefecture, Japan. While it is most visited in winter for its thick snow covered thatched rooftops and signature hotpot dish, suttate, with our November-end timing, I caught myself mesmerized by the fiery autumn foliage all around town.
