The weather in Kanazawa is changeable. Since the city gets a relatively large amount of rain, there is a proverb that translates as "Even if you forget your packed lunch, don't forget your umbrella." We recommended that you always be prepared with rain gear such as your umbrella when going out sightseeing.
Welcome to Kanazawa! The items that we are featuring here are just one small part of Kanazawa. The city's identity is made up of many characteristics that cannot be found in other Japanese cities. Be sure to experience for yourself all of the various "Kanazawas" that are scattered about the city and are integral parts of it.
Experience Kanazawa!In June of 2009, Kanazawa was appointed into the "Crafts and Folk Art" category for UNESCO's "Creative Cities Network".
City of Crafts
In close proximity to both the sea and the mountains, Kanazawa is blessed with geographical conditions that are conducive to an abundance of good food. Moreover, the city's gastronomic culture has been influenced by the delicate and exquisite culture of the feudal period. During all four seasons, many tourists from all over Japan gather here to experience the exquisite flavors of Kanazawa's food.
Would you like to experience the techniques of Kanazawa's delicate and elegant traditional crafts? There are many crafts to experience from pasting gold leaf, to the stencil dying of Kaga Yuzen, to even making your own Wagashi and much more.
Dining
Hands-on-experience
If you are thinking of taking home a bit of Kanazawa's traditional culture, there are many items for you to choose from. Even the smallest of Kanazawa's refined traditional crafts are full of the city's distinct character.

Kanazawa is a city that preserves its traditional culture in the everyday life of its citizens, yet at the same time adopts new culture. If you walk just a little way, you will see how the old and the new coexist.

Downtown Kanazawa
21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa / Kenrokuen Garden and Vicinity
One can summarize the attraction of present-day Kanazawa as "coexistence of mod-
ernity and tradition". For example, by simply venturing a little distance away from
the downtown area that bustles with young people, you can come across a street-
scape dating back several centuries. This is the area that symbolizes the attraction
of present-day Kanazawa. The 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kana-
zawa exhibits a wide range of modern art by artists from all over the world; you
can spend a long time there without tiring of the exhibits. Kanazawa Castle Park is
a symbol of Kanazawa's traditional culture, and Kenrokuen Garden was created as
the castle garden by successive generations of lords, beginning more that 300 years
ago. As one of the three most famous gardens of Japan, it attracts many tourists.
This area, in which newness and traditional culture coexist, is truly representative
of modern-day Kanazawa.

Korinbo / Kata-machi / Naga-machi and Vicinity
The area that comprises Ishikawa Prefecture, where Kanazawa is located, Toyama
Prefecture to the east, and Fukui Prefecture to the west is called Hokuriku.
Korinbo/Katamachi is the largest commercial area in Hokuriku. With its
concentration of various kinds of people and shops, it is the most important center
for both people and products in this area. If you are walking around looking for a
place to have lunch or dinner, or to have tea, this is probably the area where you can
enjoy yourself the most. People looking for typical Kanazawa dishes, or those who
miss the tastes of their home country can probably find the type of restaurant they
are looking for here. Of course, this area is also recommended for shopping, and for
people who want to spend an evening in Kanazawa enjoying some good drinks.
If you go a little beyond the commercial district, you can walk through Nagamachi,
an area that brings to mind the streetscape of samurai days. In this area there are
also samurai residences and museums that evoke the lifestyle of the feudal period, so
if you are interested in samurais and their culture, you should definitely go and have
a look.

Kanazawa Station / Musashigatsuji / Owari-cho and Vicinity
The glass dome of Kanazawa Station has the nickname of "Motenashi Dome".
Motenashi means "welcoming" or "entertainment"; it is a word that indicates
good treatment of guests. The dome expresses the hospitality of the citizens of
Kanazawa, who kindly greet and send off people who come to visit the rainy city,
in the hope that they will not get wet when starting their journey.
Omi-cho Market, said to be the "kitchen of the citizens of Kanazawa", is located
in Musashigatsuji. About 280 years old, it is crammed with rows of seafood and
vegetable shops. Looking around at all of the produce, you will get a sense of the
market's unique vitality.
Owari-cho, which was once inhabited by merchants and craftsmen, has many old
shops that are still in business. You can enjoy the taste of such treats as old-
fashioned confections and tsukudani (various foods boiled down in soy sauce). The
atmospheric street that goes from Owari-cho to the Kazue-machi Chaya District
by the Asanogawa River is the perfect place for a stroll.

Higashi Chaya District / Utatsuyama and Vicinity
Higashi means "east", utatsu means "east-southeast"; the names of the Higashi
Chaya District and Mt. Utatsu (Utatsu-yama) derive from the fact that they are
located in an easterly and east-southeasterly direction, respectively, as seen from
Kanazawa Castle.
The Higashi Chaya District is one of three chaya districts in Kanazawa. Its
streetscape, which has maintained a strong feudal-period atmosphere, is still
throbbing with life. For example, in the evening, under the lights of the houses,
you might be lucky enough to meet a group of geisha girls. These are not meant as
an attraction for tourists; they are definitely one of the sights of modern Kanazawa
that have remained throughout the city's long history. The Higashi Geisha District
is an area where you can see and experience for yourself the traditional culture of
Kanazawa.
Mt. Utatsu is a mountain that Kanazawa citizens are familiar with as a place to
relax that is close to the downtown area. You can go there in the spring to enjoy its
cherry blossoms, and in the fall to enjoy its crimson foliage.

The Higashi Chaya District contains
many tea houses with long histories,
which have been more recently used
as Japanese-style cafes. If you need a
quick rest from sight-seeing, stopping
by one of these cafes for some
Japanese confectionaries and matcha tea is the perfect fix. In
addition to cafes, the Higashi Chaya District boosts a myriad of
souvenir shops and opportunities to try traditional crafts hands-on.
It is truly an essential tourist stop if you visit Kanazawa.

Tera means "temple". As the name indicates, there are about 70 temples in Teramachi.
About 400 years ago, temples that were dotted around the city were moved to Teramachi
and the base of Mt. Utatsu. Myoryuji Temple, known by its nickname of Ninja Temple, will
probably surprise you with its various contraptions. The sound of bells at dusk also makes a
deep impression on visitors.

The Nishi Chaya District is one of
Kanazawa’s three tea house districts,

Toshiie Maeda, whose body rests in
Mt. Nodayama, was the man who
built the foundation for the castle
town of Kanazawa. His great
accomplishments are remembered
every year at the beginning of June,
in which the Hyakumangoku Festival is held. The festival is widely
attended, and with its realistic promenade of heroic warriors, you
can experience a taste of the past as if you had time travelled back to
the Warring States period.

LThe Best of Kanazawa
ryoteiGet your fill of the elegance of Japanese culture at a (料亭)
Have you ever been to a ryotei, or Japanese-style restaurant?
In addition to authentic Japanese cuisine,
it offers an experience of various elements of Japanese culture.
Here in Kanazawa, there are many ryotei with a history
of several hundred years.
A visit to one of them would be sure to delight you.
Kanazawa - a city of ryotei
Sushi
The architecture of a ryotei
A delicacy presented on a fine plate
Geishas
L Architecture
Enjoy superb sushi Because fresh seafood is readily available
in Kanazawa, the sushi is outstanding.
Be sure to visit the sushi restaurants
dotted around the city.
L Performing arts
Enjoy handicrafts and geisha performancesThe food is presented on Kanazawa Kutani ware, the traditional ceramic ware of Ishikawa Prefecture, and Kanazawa lacquerware; all of the dishes are of superb quality. The interior decoration of a ryotei includes folding screens and scroll pictures. Guests can invite geishas to perform. Please have your fill of Kanazawa's many forms of art in a ryotei.
A ryotei is a restaurant that serves kaiseki ryori -
a set of dishes served on an individual tray.
There are many such restaurants in Kanazawa.
All you need to do to experience the city's
traditional culture is make a reservation. The
attractions of a ryotei can be divided into
"cuisine", "architecture" and "performing
arts".
L Cuisine
Enjoy the essence of Kaga cuisine The dishes served in Kanazawa's ryotei mainly fall into the category of Kaga cuisine. The flavors are exquisite, as indicated by the fact that Kaga cuisine attracts chefs from Kyoto, a city that also has many ryotei, and from all over Japan for training.
Admire a Japanese house and a Japanese garden at the same time.Take your time to look around the building. Kanazawa's ryotei are all of an authentic traditional Japanese-style architecture, with a Japanese garden that takes on a new aspect in each of the four seasons.
