Hi,

I would like to visit hida folk village at night during the winter illumination in 2018, but I couldn't find any information on the bus schedule. Where can i find the information about the winter illumination 2018 for Hida folk village? Thanks!

https://www.nouhibus.co.jp/route_bus/takayama-shirakawago-line-en/ Has bus schedule but maybe no late bus on the return. They also doing a tour as well on specific dates.

http://tour.j-hoppers.com/shirakawago_tour.html They might have something as well but currently have no information about 2018 dates

Hida Folk Village is in Takayama and served by the local buses (or you can taxi or even walk).

Do you mean Shirakawa-go?

We visited several years ago. We enquired at the tourist information centre about transport during the night-time illumination and was told that there was no bus there (at that time of night). So we took a taxi and when we alighted, the taxi driver indicated where we could take a taxi back. When we finished our tour of the attraction, walked to the taxi stand and there was a taxi there. It was the same driver, he had waited for us! Cost of the taxi fare was 950 yen there, and 890 yen back.

@Koohii2wii thanks for the information! I will keep an lookout!

@JapanCustomTours I mean hida folk village in takayama because I'm not sure if i'm able to get a place for the bus tour to shirakawago for the night illumination. So i'm considering hida folk village as they have night illumination as well.

@Green Tea Latte thanks for the information!

Oh sorry, I guess I just read Winter illumination and assumed Shirakawago XD

Yes Hida Village in Takayama could be taxi or like a 20 min walk back to station.

Have a great trip!

No problem. I actually like the Hida Village more than Shirakawa-go because of the variety of buildings and the history aspect.
