Gifu (岐阜市, Gifu-shi) is a city located in the south-central portion of Gifu Prefecture, Japan, and serves as the prefectural capital. The city has played an important role in Japan's history because of its location in the middle of the country. During the Sengoku period, various warlords, including Oda Nobunaga, used the area as a base in an attempt to unify and control Japan. Gifu continued to flourish even after Japan's unification as both an important shukuba along the Edo period Nakasendō and, later, as one of Japan's fashion centers. It has been designated a core city by the national government.

Walked up Mt Kinka with family and friends. Took about 1 hour to get up. We took the rope way down as it was getting dark around 5pm. We had a 25 minute way for the rope way at the end of a Sunday. Great views from the top and well worth the visit
