Kanazawa is a must stop on any visit to Japan. This compact city, centred around its prestige castle is truly proud of its Samurai culture and presents an uncrowded town filled with fine arts, onsens, traditional Noh music, geishas, refined dining and exquisite gardens.
Set in Ishikawa prefecture, a 2.5 hour bullet train ride from Tokyo, 65 minutes from Nagano or a short flight from Sapporo, Kanazawa is Ishikawa’s main city, a prefecture of seaside fishing villages in the shadows of its nearly inaccessible mountain temples. Living free from the bustle and modernity of the big cities, with a population still very much attached to its land, sea and ways of life. Here is a chance to discover real Japan, in Ishikawa’s many hidden treasures.
