Two days changes the Alps completely. You can sleep in a temple lodging at Zenko-ji and join the dawn service, when the head priest touches his rosary to bowed heads, or stay up near the Alpine Route and see the snow walls before the day crowds arrive.
Visit Takayama, Shirakawa-go and Tateyama’s towering spring snow walls on a two-day bus tour with an overnight stay and breakfast.
