It was my first time to visit Kanazawa in Ishikawa Pref. I knew Kanazawa was a famous city that had traditional buildings and Japanese gardens, but I often go to Kyoto to enjoy such kind of cityscapes. While walking around Kanazawa, however, I noticed Kyoto is traditional but developing and Kanazawa is preserving the Japanese tradition in the whole city.
I visited several spots in Kanazawa in a day. This gallery picks up a Japanese garden named "Kenroku-en （兼六園）" and a street named "Higashi-Chayagai（ひがし茶屋街）" which are very impressive for me. You can enjoy the zen-like spirit in one of the three biggest Japanese garden in Japan and traditional Japanese cityscape in the street. I prefer to visiting such streets at night like I did in Kyoto, too!
I made a photo album at the end of this page which has photos that are not listed on this gallery. Some of the photos are also available at Adobe Stock and Shutterstock.
