Went to Gifu prefecture last week with 3 other friends. 2 of them being new students from Taiwan were really pretty excited cus it will be their first time seeing snow. Yup, we were going to a super snowy place, (or you can say the white country as Japanese themselves named it.) But then we got much than we bargained for. Much much much more...
On the first day we reached Takayama only to find the streets piled with snow which made walking so difficult. But well, despite the supposedly 8 mins walk as written on the pamphlet which took us nearly 20 mins, the grand hotel took our minds off our tired legs. We paid only 8500 Yen per person ( amts to about 120 sing), we got ourselves a big Japanese style room, buffet steamboat dinner consisting of "Hida Beef" (p/s: this is high-class beef that costs as much as 3000 yen per 300g for the highest grade!) , a top facilitated hot spring and then buffet breakfast the next morning.

And then all our happy faces...
