Winter in Nagoya and Hida is a romantic journey that stretches from dazzling city illuminations to snow country hot springs. Beginning with the winter light displays of Nagoya’s Sakae district and Oasis 21, the route gradually leads into the snow-covered landscapes of Shirakawa-go and the historic streets of Hida Takayama, where the atmosphere of Japan’s snow country comes vividly to life.

Along the way, the journey connects Gero Onsen, Inuyama Castle, and Meiji Mura, creating a slower-paced travel experience between historic towns and famous hot springs. Spend the days admiring shimmering winter scenery, then relax at night in soothing hot spring baths. This trip brings together the most captivating winter landscapes of Japan’s Chubu region in one unforgettable itinerary.
