DATE: January 09, 2022
LOCATION: Shirakawa-go, Shirakawa Village, Gifu Prefecture, Japan
CONTEXT:
It’s our first winter visit here at this UNESCO World Heritage Site in Japan 🇯🇵. The weather was calm and pretty good for a walk while exploring the area. The place was full of Chinese tourists and Filipinos as well.
Driving without snow tires was made possible since the local government officials here provided road sweepers at all connecting roads and highways. The Parking Area’s time frame for all vehicles is set from 8:00am-5:00pm. The Parking Fee’s fixed rate is ¥1000 CASH (NO credit cards) on regular cars irregardless of the time of arrival and departure.
Queuing at the parking entrance is usually common depending on the volume of visitors. Presence of regulating traffic personnel was of great help in providing a well organized flow of traffic whether going in or out.

Do we need snow tiers? Or it’s okay to drive with regular car tires?

[@JapanRoadTrip]

Regular tires are good if it’s not heavy snowing however snow tires are recommended for safety. Thanks for watching 👋🙂

Which time of the year is it? Is it safe to drive for someone who has no winter driving experience ?

[@JapanRoadTrip]

This was taken on January. I could say it's safe to drive here since road snow sweepers are available to clear the roads from heavy snow. Thanks for watching 👋🙂
