  • In several guidebooks they mention the morning markets. We visited the one in front of Takayama Jinja and also the one along the banks of the Miya river from the Kaja bridge to the north.
    But its not really the traditional market you are looking for. Many stalls are selling souvenirs like the little faceless Takayama doll next to their fresh vegetables.
