Sakurayama Hachimangu in Takayama
桜山八幡宮
There are two walking courses in Takayama. You want to take them both. I took the first (Higashiyama Walking Course) with the family on the day we arrived. On the second day, I set out early on the Kitayama Walking Course and enjoyed the most wonderful walk in the rain that I think I have ever experienced. Along the way I stopped in at this shrine.

Takayama is one of the must see places in Japan that is often overlooked by the traveller to Japan. There are so many great walks as well as the edo period houses in the old part of town, onesens (hot springs) and amazing food (hida beef).
