To Takayama

We stopped at a wasabi farm on our way to Takayama.

One of Takayama's claims to fame is its Floats Festival that is held twice a year.  We visited the museum that displays several of these floats in between the festival parade.  They are built like mini shrines and are quite elaborate.
