Hello Kanazawa

Local experts picked the top five places out of all the cherry blossom viewing spots in Kanazawa to tell you where you can find the best views in the city!

Do you find it difficult to use local buses in a city that you’re visiting for the first time? Here, I will introduce some useful bus lines for tourists which connect to major sights like Higashi Chaya District, Omicho Market, Kenrokuen Garden and the 21st Century Museum. Hokuriku Tetsudo (a local bus company) runs the “Kanazawa Loop Bus” and the “Kenrokuen Shuttle”, and by using a Hokutetsu Bus One-Day Pass, I hope you will get the most out of the city!

If you are visiting Kanazawa, why don’t you extend your stay for one more day and do a quick day trip to another city? I will show you some popular day trip destinations from Kanazawa! You will be surprised how many fascinating choices you have such as Shirakawago and Noto! It is easy to go by car, but there are bus tours for people who cannot drive in Japan.
