Ogimachi Castle Old Site Observatory

THE photo spot for the village. Shuttle bus goes up there - takes 10 mins, walk down takes 20 mins (different shorter route) Private parking on the hill (for about 50 cars?) Nice to buy food or drink and then you can sit on the left of the photo taking spot, under the tree and look down at the scene peacefully. Staff take a free photo of visitors - which you can get at the desk minutes later - it is a tiny 1/4 of a postcard picture - and then choose to pay to have the same pic big size.

Definitely a must visit location in Shirakawa-go. It's about 30 minutes hike and provides a brilliant birds eye view of entire town. Plus there's ice-cream at the top.
