Last updated May 24, 2026

Hida Takayama Teddy Bear Eco Village is a unique destination in Takayama, combining a vast collection of teddy bears with a strong emphasis on environmental sustainability. Opened in 2009, the village is home to over a thousand teddy bears, ranging from rare antiques to contemporary designs. Each teddy bear is carefully curated and displayed in themed rooms that tell different stories, making it a treasure trove for both collectors and casual visitors.

The village itself is a model of eco-friendly architecture. The buildings are constructed using sustainable materials, and the entire site operates with energy efficiency in mind. Solar panels, water-saving systems, and natural ventilation are just some of the features that highlight the village’s commitment to reducing its environmental impact.

Outside, the gardens are meticulously maintained with a focus on native flora. These gardens not only beautify the area but also support local ecosystems by providing a habitat for birds and insects.

Traveler reviews

While staying at Takayama, you will bound to visit the Hida Sato Village and Matsuri no Mori Museum which are just short bus rides away. This museum is just located along the same road between the 2 sights. We been to Takayama on numerous occasion and not visit this Terry bear museum due to the bad reputation of the Okuhida Bear's Ranch. What a big mistake! This museum is fun and insanely full of beautiful, unique, colorful Teddy bears on display and plentiful of photo opportunities for lasting memories. Not only for kids. There's also an interesting Teddy bears gift shop and cafe next door. This museum is a real GEM that is under rated and missed by plenty.

Such a cute and cozy place! I didn’t expect to enjoy the Teddy Bear Museum this much, but it completely won me over. The bears are not only adorable but also full of personality, and the displays are super creative and fun. Perfect for families, couples, or honestly anyone who wants to feel like a kid again for a while. Definitely worth a visit!

I love Teddy bear since I remember and my wife and I still have 6 of them on our bed. We treat them like our children. This place is a secret treasure for teddy bear lover. It literally brings my tear of joy. My teddy bear, Jibby, love this place so much. The lady who run this place is also very kind and welcome.

Teddy!!! 😆😆😆😆 I am in love with teddy since I watch korean drama princess hours few years back. And i stumbling upon this museum is like finding a treasure.. When you buying the ticket, the staff asking if you want to play games or not. The game is quite simple actually, you find objects while looking around the museum. They give you paper and we have to look closely at each piece of bear. If you finished it, you will get some souvenir. Quite fun actually 💕 After touring the museum, you can eat in the restaurant next door and also bought some cute souvenir from the shop. Very recommended.
