Good video but not sure Hiroshima as a day trip is viable. Shinkansen will take 4+ hrs but not on a JR Pass so over 5 hours each way unless you fly of course. I've done Hiroshima as a day trip from Kyoto and back at the hotel after midnight.

I would not recommend Shirakawa-go as a day trip from Tokyo as it is extremely remote. Do it only if you want to spend 9 hours travelling to and from Tokyo and are satisfied with an hour and a bit there.

Better to do this as a day trip from Nagoya or Takayama, or even spend a night in one of the heritage houses.

I would also recommend Mount Takao and Karuizawa.

Hiroshima is a bit far for a day trip, maybe a two or three days visit !? 😳

How could take Shiragawa-Go as a day trip !?

Sorry, but if you can’t pronounce the Japanese names correctly, I can’t trust your Japanese travel advice

Shirakawa go is full of xenophobia! I don’t recommend that place.
