Your visit to Kanazawa, the cultural and economic capital of the entire Hokuriku region, will likely start at the city’s impressive train station. Here you will find the iconic Tsuzumi-mon gate. Originally built in 1898, Kanazawa Station received a major overhaul in 2005, with a futuristic design featuring a glass-and-steel dome, and the giant wooden gate resembling a torii, a gate found at Japanese shrines.
