Experience the quintessential Japanese countryside at these beautiful rice terraces sprawling across a mountain slope.
Kamoida Rice Terraces are beautiful rice paddies nestled on a mountain slope in Yabaitsu-cho, Kamo-gun, Gifu Prefecture. Selected as one of Japan's Top 100 Rice Terraces and also featured in "Gifu's 21 Rice Terraces," the scenery is truly reminiscent of the classic Japanese landscape. During rice-planting season, the green rice paddies color the mountainside, and in autumn, golden ears of rice ripen. Lush nature surrounds the terraces, offering stunning seasonal views. Cherry blossoms abound in spring, verdant leaves cover the trees in summer, autumn brings fiery red and yellow foliage, and winter blankets the area in a serene snowscape. Local restaurants and cafes serving regional specialties are also nearby, allowing you to enjoy delicious food while savoring the breathtaking view. A visit to Kamoida Rice Terraces provides a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, offering a chance to reconnect with nature and rejuvenate your mind and body. It's highly recommended for those seeking relaxation and revitalization.
