What People Are Saying About Kanazawa

Kenroku-en

zhq1966
Kenrokuen Garden is not big, and it takes about an hour and a half to walk around it, which is a relatively slow pace. If you just rush around, you can finish the walk in half an hour. Overall, it is still worth a visit.

21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa

Interesting layout. Enjoyed my hour there, but it wasn’t as much art in there as I imagined. The pool was very popular with tourists, and you have to book ahead to be able to enter.

Ōmichō Market

开心就好灬
Kanazawa Omicho Market is actually a bit similar to Osaka Kuromon Market, but it feels cleaner than Kuromon. There are many seafood and other fresh vegetables and fruits. It is the busiest here at noon, and you can eat the freshest seafood on the spot.

Higashi Chaya District

Take the Northern Railway bus from Kanazawa East Tea House Street (ひがしChaya Street) in Hokuriku, Japan and get off at Hashibacho Station. The tea house is where Japanese geishas performed during the Edo period. It retains the flavor of the Edo period and is quite interesting for taking photos. It feels like it’s a popular spot in Kanazawa!

Kanazawa Castle Park

Kanazawa Castle Park is right next to Kenrokuen Garden. It is a free park that is much larger than Kenrokuen Garden. It is recommended to visit it when you come to Kanazawa. It is the cherry blossom season, and the cherry blossoms in the park are in full bloom. The night cherry blossoms here are especially beautiful. There are even more people in the night cherry blossom season than during the day. It feels like a park with a sense of history.

Shirakawa-go

It is a village extracted from a fairy tale book. If you go during winter, you will see how pretty it is. But be aware that buses are packed and you must book in advance. 👍

Oyama Shrine

ようだー
Oyama Shrine in Kanazawa. Its appearance is interesting and unlike the typical shrines you see often. While it has a Japanese feel, it is also sprinkled with elements of foreign culture, giving it a sense of history.
