Amaharashi Coast (Noto Peninsula Quasi-National Park)

I went there in the summer, so I didn't have the chance to see the snow-capped mountains. I drove through a winding road and turned a corner to see the sea. The wind was quite strong. There was a coffee shop indoors opposite the coast, so I could take a short break. It was nice to sit and daydream whether indoors or by the sea.

Takaoka Ruilong Temple is the only national treasure in Toyama. As the second generation of Kaga-ji, the Bodhi Temple of the main Maeda Lichang, was founded by the third generation of the main Maeda Lichang in Cao Dongzong in 1663. It is said that it took about 20 years to build. At that time, there were trenches built around it, similar to Chengguo, and its layout form of Galan. More solemn atmosphere. Shanmen, Buddha Hall and Fatang were designated as national treasures. #Get down and walk four parties. Takaoka Ruilong Temple#

A must-check in place to come to Takaoka. Takaoka is a city with 400 years of bronze and lacquer history. Takaoka has the title of "National Traditional Crafts Origin" awarded by the Japanese government, and the copper market share reached 95[%]. The Takaoka Buddha and Nara ・ Kamakura are one of the three Buddhas representing Japan, and are the designated cultural wealth of Takaoka City. The Takaoka Buddha is the essence of the local copper manufacturing technology, built from 1907 after 26 years. The total height is15.85 meters, and the total weight reaches 65 tons. Because of its exquisite construction, it is known as the first beautiful man in Japan. It is also the symbol of the bronze production of the Japanese first Takaoka city.

Go to Gaogang Art Museum, this peach blossom garden designed by Dr. Pei Yuming! 😊 This is my second visit. The surrounding colors are dizzying. I walked along the road full of different plants. I slowly and carefully feel the calm and Shutai brought by this peach blossom source. Then I walked to the art gallery to enjoy various types of art products. Wash the soul!

The ancient city of Takaoka was built in 1609 by the second generation of Kaga-maeda, the main Maeda Lichang, and became a famous city in the middle of Hokluyue. In 1615, Takaoka City was abandoned due to the decree of the Shogunate, but the city of Takaoka City has been extended to this day, which has become the current Takaoka City. The ancient city of Takaoka has been a park since the Meiji period. The ancient city of Takaoka built by Tian Lichang a year ago has now become a Takaoka ancient city park. The ancient city that has been abandoned for 400 years is still one of the landmarks of Takaoka. The ancient city park has been transformed into an art sculpture forest, and famous sculptures are scattered among the trees and flowers. One-third of the city is a moat, and the red stone bridge is a relic of the ancient city.
