Get to know the charming town of Takayama on this morning meander through the well-preserved Old Town.

The morning markets are the best places to try Hida specialities such as mochi (glutinous rice cakes), savoury soya-based miso paste, and plenty of homemade sweets and treats.  Within the heart of the historical streets you will find a number of sake breweries, some of which have been creating delicious rice wine for hundreds of years.  Learn more about the process involved to create this quintessentially Japanese drink, and try a few tipples to find your own personal favourite.
