About Shirakawa
Shirakawa sits in the upland valleys of the Hida region, at roughly 490 metres above sea level. The town is known for its rural setting, rivers and forested hills, and it is part of the wider area famous for traditional wooden architecture and mountain scenery. The surrounding landscape changes noticeably with the seasons, from green summers to snowy winters.
What to watch on the camera
Because the camera is a live stream, the most rewarding times to watch are usually early morning, when mist often hangs over the valley, and late afternoon, when the light softens on the hills. Autumn colours in the surrounding forests and snow in winter can make the view especially striking. Check the weather block on this page before you watch, since clouds and rain can hide the mountains.
Climate and getting around
Shirakawa has warm, humid summers and cold winters with considerable snowfall, so spring and autumn are generally the most comfortable seasons to visit. Takayama, about 35 km away, is the nearest larger town and a good base for exploring the region. Kanazawa, roughly 40 km off, is another option for a longer trip. Other cameras in the region are listed on this page.
