Kanazawa 金沢

Cultural & historic hotspot

Kanazawa

Kanazawa is a lovely city to visit, deserving of lengthy exploration. Make sure to spend some time here.

Kenrokuen is one of Japan's Sanmeien, the ‘three great gardens’, considered by many to be the most beautiful. Just over the road is Kanazawa Castle, with magnificent grounds.

Other highlights include the Higashi Chaya (teahouse) district, Nagamachi, the former samurai district, and Ōmichō Ichiba, Kanazawa’s fresh food markets.

The Kanazawa Loop Bus is a hop-on, hop-off bus that takes visitors to the city’s interesting spots.
