Japan Again! - Takayama Day 2 - Oct 09

Takayama Day 2

Today we only had a few hours before we were due to leave for Shirakawago. We had bus tickets for around 12, and decided we could fit in a few hours eating down at the market and seeing some more of the sights.

As we mainly wandered around Sakurayama Hachimangu Shrine that morning, I will sum it all up with a few shots;



Sakurayama Hachimangu Shrine






And then more wandering around the town;

The dog theme from the previous day - continued! A dog with a sarubobo riding it!



Yep, this is probably the cutest dog I have ever seen


During our wander, there were loads of local schoolkids obviously on an excursion, and they were super cute;




A real live Tanuki - or a raccoon dog stuffed!! Frightening!

A cat cafe - we never ended up going inside, would love to know what it's like!

A cigarette butt bin - with some words of warning!
