Enjoyed night sakura in Kanazawa Castle
There were very crowded so suggested to go early
The view of night cherry blossom was magnificent and nice
The entrance fee is free for night sakura viewing.
We drove there so it was difficult to get a car park since lots of people. But it’s convenient to take public transport to there.
You can enjoy sakura in daytime.

Spring in Kanazawa
#cherryblossom2024
Not as crowded as Osaka, beautiful and easy to access, we were surprised by so many cherry blossoms in Kanazawa, Japan. Next to the castle is a beautiful garden that gets busy over the weekend and is open also in the evening. The castle and garden offers many nice spots for lovely pictures and are both great places for morning jogging when it is still quiet and tranquil.

Appreciate the elegant aesthetics of Kanazawa, as graceful as gold foil and as rich as powdered snow
🌸 When the cherry blossoms in Kenrokuen Garden bloom beautifully, when the riverside lights of Asano River are lit, the whole city is filled with a romantic atmosphere. 🎐 The cherry blossoms in Kanazawa are also fleeting but extremely brilliant representatives of Japanese aesthetics, with rich craft experiences and humanistic arts intertwined, everyone is expressing their understanding of 'beauty' in a unique way.

Off-the-beaten-path destinations for viewing autumn leaves in Japan.
In November 2019, the last time I went abroad, the destinations were Nagoya, Kanazawa, and Shirakawa-go.
This is a relatively niche route in Japan, although it doesn't have the fame of Kyoto's maple leaves, the scenery is no less impressive.
Nagoya: a city in central Japan with domestic flights available.
Kanazawa: known as "Little Kyoto", with small and exquisite gardens, it is also a popular spot for autumn maple viewing. It can be reached from Nagoya JR.
Shirakawa-go: a small village in central Japan, famous for its gassho-zukuri houses, which are very distinctive and seem like a fairytale world. There are beautiful views throughout the year, with the autumn scene shown in picture one and the snowy landscape being particularly famous. The transportation is not very convenient, so we took a one-day tour by car from Nagoya.
World of History | "Japan" Experience the history and tradition of gold foil processing and crafts
Our first stop is Dongchawu Street, which is also a very tasteful old street. At night, some shops also have geisha performances, if you are lucky I will encounter it occasionally.
The most important experience that came to Kanazawa was the processing of gold foil craftsmanship, which has more than 400 years of history and tradition. More than 99% of the gold foil produced in Japan comes from here.
can be a little thing, go back and give it to a friend. I also played it myself, and I also had a gift, and I won two.
There will be a staff member who speaks more proficient Chinese to give us a explanation. The gold foil needs to hit a millionth of a millimeter to be successful. This process requires superb technology. In the store, you can also see the production process of a part of the gold foil.
There is a shopping area for goods, and there are some fine products inside, which are naturally expensive. This arrangement is very good at home, and it has a very auspicious meaning.
Japan Kanazawa Castle
winter February to Jinze, Kanazawa Castle Park and Kenroku Park is the place to punch card
morning from Toyama, with the Northland Rail Pass free to take the Shinkansen free seat 20 Minutes to Kanazawa, the regular train takes more than one hour, the pass is easy to use!
Kanazawa Train Station 15 minutes walk through the Omi-machi seafood market that is longing for food, Kanazawa City appears.
This is a city in the 16th century when the former Tianli family moved from the Seventh House to the city, imitating the city of Osaka Castle built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and later experienced a re-construction of the fire. In the winter of February, it was covered with snow, and there were innocent walls and white roofs. The park was free to enter and compared the three famous gardens and six gardens in Japan.
There are several locations that are especially recommended for taking pictures
The deepest feeling of the charm of a city, the simplest and warmest way is to integrate into the real life scene. Breakfast, food market, nightingale, without exception, warmth, and find the most life-oriented moments. Which moment can you most touch your heart?
Living daily, vegetables and fruits, tempting seafood, tender and beef, like a playground for life. Here, it is Kanazawa's famous Omi-machi market, where you can see many local residents, and of course many foreign tourists come here. You will feel that you have come to the right place. After all, local is the embodiment of the most local life.
Kinze has invited art craftsmen to come here because of the Kaga family, which has brought the craftsmanship level to a very high level. Kanazawa is famous for its gold foil, and its glittering gold foil can be applied to daily necessities for decoration, or added to cosmetics, and some can even be eaten, such as gold foil ice cream.
From pasting, to gluing, you can dry and shape after three days. Every step needs to be slow and careful to feel. The manual maker is really not easy. In fact, the ability to do things is often a process of relieving temper. Step by step, look at the exquisite handicrafts in front of you. Is there any reason to lose your temper? Lets take a look at the gold foil jewelry box I designed myself. Is it a model?
Kanazawa, once the fourth largest city in Japan, is second only to Edo, Daegu and Kyoto. Nowadays, with the development of coastal cities, Kanazawa has gradually declined, but the Japanese tradition is still well passed down here.
Walk in the No. 6 Park, the first of Japan's three famous gardens, encounter the young boys and girls wearing kimonos, feel the youthful atmosphere of the face; or laze on the chair, and the animals beside them Enjoy the warm sun of the winter together; or go to the Omi-machi market to find the twelve flavors.
Everything is fascinating and I feel very cordial about the city.
Kanazawa's sushi enjoys a high reputation throughout the country because it is close to the Sea of Japan and is rich in seafood. Seafood is just caught, how can you miss the seafood sushi as a gourmet. At the place of our dinner, we chose a sushi restaurant in the Omi-machi market, which is known as the kitchen of Kanazawa citizens. The delicious sushi is served with warm sake, and the exhaustion of the day is gone. I have gold in my hand. A special gift from Zee City
Japan is a country frequented by Chinese people, but most Chinese people only go to big cities like Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto. I don't like places where there are many people, and I don't like the punching place on the bad street.
Japan's Thang Long Road is located in the central part of Japan. Kanazawa City, the westernmost part of the central part of the city, is also a very interesting city. There are not many Chinese people here, you can feel more authentic Japanese life. surroundings.
Kanazawa's specialties are gold foil, and there are many hot springs. It takes half an hour to get to the Wakura Onsen. Kanazawa at night is very beautiful, people come and go, there are not many cars on the road, it is a very small punching place. There are many scenic spots in
Kanazawa, and there are also six parks, gold foil shops, 21st century museums, etc., which are very interesting places. Travel is still like a place where the niche is not crowded.
