Pick up
Against the background of white walled warehouses and stone temple walls, the Setogawa River, in which over 1,000 multicolored carp swim, is a major popular spot with richly atmospheric scenery that might be described as the face of the castle town of Hida-Furukawa.
Many old town houses still remain here, laid out like a checkerboard, and this district has a 500-meter stretch of white walled warehouses that is beautiful in all four seasons, with tiny, quaint streets perfect for strolling about.
Note
During winter, the carp swimming in the Setogawa River are moved to a nearby excavated pond.
