I’ve made a full self guided tour of Kanazawa (with map). You can find it on our website at:
We start at Kanazawa station, where you will find the iconic modern tori gate, and most recognized landmark in Kanazawa Japan. This beautiful gate was completed in 2005, along with the re modeling of Kanazawa station. You can easily get to Kanazawa from Tokyo via Shinkansen in as little as 2.5 hours.
Nagamachi or the Samurai district: This neighbourhood was once the lavish district that the Samurai called home. The neighbourhood was in it’s prime during the Edo period, but when we visited he were told that the last resident ( Samurai relative) of the traditional wooden Samurai homes moved out in the early 1990’s!! The neighbour is beautiful to wander through. You can go inside many of the traditional homes, for a small fee or donation.
Ever wondered if the deer in NARA, Japan are friendly???? This video serves as a bit of a trailer for the upcoming series of travel vlogs from JAPAN!
