    (Travel time from Nagoya Station to Shirakawago is 180mins) The Shirakawago and neighboring Gokayama regions line the Shogawa River Valley. It is declared a UNESCO world heritage site in 1995 and famous for their traditional gassho zukuri farmhouses, some of them are more than 250 years old. Gassho zukuri means constructed like hands in prayer, as the farmhouses' steep thatched roofs resemble the hands of Buddhist monks pressed together in prayer.
