Hida Folk Village is a great open-air museum. I really enjoy visiting this place because this is a unique place where we can see different types of old farmhouses which no longer can be found these days. It reminds me of my memories of what countryside life was like a long time ago and it's very interesting to see the changes happening all around us. And that's why walking in this open-air museum is so good! It brings memories back, like in autumn when leaves change the colour of all area, what makes the scenery more attractive. But any season is good in Hida Folk Village! And after visiting the museum, we can hike up the hill behind and get to the top where Matsukura castle used to be. Apart from some stone foundations, there is nothing left, but what we can enjoy here is a good view of the Takayama Town. And if the sky is clear, the Japanese Alps could be seen, too. It is most definitely a lovely place to enjoy the scenery.
