One of the most beautiful places I've ever been to, Kamikochi boasts of breathtaking landscapes, fresh water and great food. It is located at the Nagano Prefecture in the Chubu Region of Japan, just an hour by bus from Takayama. Kamikochi, also known as the Japanese Alps, is popular among mountaineers and hikers.
What I enjoyed most about this place is the view. Every turn is something new. We visited the alps towards the end of the Japanese summer, September, so it was pretty cool when we did our hike. I also appreciated how friendly the people are. A lot of hikers are men and women in their 60s and 70s. Every time you pass anyone, they will bow their heads and say, "Konnichiwa!"
