Sunset Water Town Walk: Gujo Hachiman | Gifu, Japan 4K Golden Hour

A quiet walk in Gujo Hachiman, a traditional Japanese town set in a beautiful mountain landscape along the Yoshida River in Gifu, Japan. I arrived late in the day and started walking right away to catch the last of the light. I didn’t have a chance to scout the area so I may have missed some of the more popular sights and interesting streets. Gujo seems like a very walkable town with an interesting flavor, definitely a place I would like to return.

Summer 2025 update, I did indeed return: https://youtu.be/sQABvDlNCQM

  1. This little landlocked town has to be Japan's oldest, how Japan used to be. Gujo seems to have maintained the past glory intact. From those stones, I can tell there's a lot of moisture, water and snow activity around.

    Your videos are crisp clear and nice except they lack explanations. For instance, I wanted to know about the 'white house' at 47.26.
    And not much said about castles in the 'castle town' either.

    Good job overall. Thanks

  2. Gujo is a nice town to walk around. The streets are so clean as if someone has swept them the night before. I like the older ladies in their beautiful kimonos, the cobblestone streets and the lighted lanterns. It's pleasant to sightseeing accompanied by the sound of water. Thank you.

  3. @18:01 good shot. It's like the whole world behind that building at the end of the road is just a wall of trees….
