In use as an official government building complex from 1692 until 1969, this is the only existing building of its kind in Japan. A National Historic Site, the complex now houses a museum showcasing maps of the Hida region, historical town plans, documents of feudal lords, and the largest traditional rice storehouse in Japan. A visitor gets to see rooms that once served as guest rooms, conference rooms, office rooms, and an "interrogation" room depicting some persuasive methods. Don't miss this important place of interest where shoguns, feudal lords, government officials dealing with tax collection, policing, forest management, tax collection, and rice (tax payment) storage all contributed to its history. Go, enjoy. Please give a like if this is helpful, or you like the info. Thank you.

Almost everybody come to Takayama just for the old town lane, and you will expect the crowds especially at morning and afternoon time. Almost a long queue in the food area and the old houses there are well preserved and you can experience the Japan golden time with the ninjas. Staying one or two nights at Takayama is a best option especially to enjoy the calmness and quietness after dark as this is a small city and no rush. Hotels are located at Takayama Station and the old town square is just 5 minutes walk.
