A Fresh Perspective on Travel Every Day
Put your money where your mouth is: this statement certainly rings true for guests who are prepared to pay the price to dine at these exclusive eateries.

Secluded in the mountainous Hida region of central Japan, Takayama is a place where Japanese history and tradition flourish in the 21st century. Atmospherically preserved neighbourhoods, a festival parade dating from the 1600s, busy morning markets, and a folk village all tell a tale of bygone times. Add in museums, handicraft shopping, and local specialties to try (from beef to miso on magnolia leaves), and a trip to Takayama is well worth the journey from Tokyo.
