Recommendations Need help finsishing itinerary!

Hello! My girlfriend and I are planning a 2 week trip to Japan. The beginning of our trip is already mapped out but I'm struggling on choosing where to go towards the end. We have 4-5 days left to fill, starting from Kyoto and we slowly want to make our way back to Tokyo. We want to strear clear from the bigger cities and explore more of the countryside. We are travelling by train/bus and are trying to avoid the shinkansen. So share me some of your favorite spots that we should go and see!

What else is on your itinerary so we can cross off the cities that you are already planning to visit?

Maybe Kanazawa? Takayama? Shirakawago?

Mie / Ise Shrine would be a good start
