      Day 11: Kanazawa!

      3 Disember 2023, Jepun ⋅ ☁️ 5 °C

      Le temps est pluvieux et orageux aujourd’hui . Nous arrivons trempés dans l'ancien quartier des samouraïs de Nagasaki. Quelques maisons ont été préservées de l'époque Edo et transformées en musées. Pour le déjeuner, nous allons au marché aux poissons de Kanazawa et commandons des bols de sashimi frais. La pluie continue et nous sommes en direction du musée d’art contemporain. Beaucoup d'art numérique, mais aussi une œuvre impressionnante de James Turrell.

      //

      Das Wetter ist heute regnerisch und stürmisch. Wir kommen durchnässt im alten Samurai-Viertel von Nagasaki an. Einige Häuser sind aus der Edo-Zeit erhalten geblieben und wurden in Museen umgewandelt. Zum Mittagessen gehen wir zum Fischmarkt von Kanazawa und bestellen Schalen mit frischem Sashimi. Der Regen hält an und wir sind auf dem Weg zum Museum für zeitgenössische Kunst. Dort gibt es viel digitale Kunst, aber auch ein beeindruckendes Werk von James Turrell zu bestaunen.

      Visiting Kenroku-En in Kanazawa

      20 November 2023, Jepun ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

      Today I traveled to Kanazawa to visit Kenroku-En, a famous Japanese Garden that is counted among the three most beautiful in Japan, even though it was a cloudy, cold and unkind November-day, you could see why this "garden with 6 features" is held in such high regard. I enjoyed my stroll through the garden. I also visited the nearby Kanazawa Castle which is a work in progress Rebuilding Site, focusing on rebuilding everything with historically accurate materials and methods. Rebuilding takes a long time, because the prime materials (like big cedar trees) are hard to source, because they are strictly protected nowadays. It's one of the largest castle sites in Japan and it had an interesting museum detailing how the various buildings have been rebuilt and which ones will be built in the future. Back in Toyama I relaxed for the rest of the day, because I caught a slight cold, even though I didn't really freeze during my outdoor endeavors in Togakushi, it seems it still managed to creep up to me. Hope I get over it soon, as the next days will be quite busy with Kyoto and then the wider area with everything that every Japan tourist and their mother usually want to see when coming to Japan.

      Google Translate:
      Heute bin ich nach Kanazawa gereist, um Kenroku-En zu besuchen, einen berühmten japanischen Garten, der zu den drei schönsten Japans zählt. Auch wenn es ein bewölkter, kalter und unfreundlicher Novembertag war, konnte man sehen, warum dieser „Garten mit 6 Merkmalen“ so sehr geschätzt wird. Ich habe meinen Spaziergang durch den Garten genossen. Ich habe auch die nahegelegene Burg Kanazawa besucht, bei der es sich um einen Wiederaufbaustandort handelt, bei dem der Schwerpunkt auf dem Wiederaufbau mit historisch korrekten Materialien und Methoden liegt. Der Wiederaufbau dauert lange, da die Rohstoffe (z. B. große Zedern) schwer zu beschaffen sind, da sie heutzutage streng geschützt sind. Es ist eine der größten Burganlagen Japans und verfügt über ein interessantes Museum, das detailliert beschreibt, wie die verschiedenen Gebäude wieder aufgebaut wurden und welche in Zukunft gebaut werden. Zurück in Toyama entspannte ich mich für den Rest des Tages, da ich mir eine leichte Erkältung zugezogen hatte, obwohl ich bei meinen Outdoor-Unternehmungen in Togakushi nicht wirklich gefroren habe, scheint es der Erkältung dennoch gelungen zu sein, sich einzuschleichen. Ich hoffe, ich komme bald darüber hinweg, denn die nächsten Tage werden mit Kyoto und der weiteren Umgebung ziemlich geschäftig sein, mit allem, was jeder Japan-Tourist und seine Mutter normalerweise sehen möchten, wenn sie nach Japan kommen.

      Kanazawa - Day 2

      1 April, Jepun ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C

      Today starts with more soufflé pancakes! Keanan found this place in the geisha district, and the breakfast pancakes are so good that we consider coming back later for their dessert options!

      Our next stop is Kenrokuen Gardens, which is known for being one of Japan's 3 most beautiful gardens. The name Kenrokuen literally means "Garden of the six sublimities", referring to spaciousness, seclusion, artificiality, antiquity, abundant water and broad views, which according to Chinese landscape theory are the six essential attributes that make up a perfect garden. Water is diverted from a distant river by a sophisticated water system constructed in 1632 to feed Kenrokuen's various water features.

      We make a quick detour to the Ishikawa Prefectural Museum of Traditional Arts and Crafts. Here, we learned about some of the crafts this area is known for, including ceramics, laquerware, gold leaf, silk spinning and more.

      We wandered back through the castle park on our way to lunch and our massages. We checked out some buildings we hadn't yesterday and enjoyed the cherry blossoms, which seemed much more bloomed after only one additional day under the sunny blue skies. The foot massage also felt great after all the walking we've been doing!

      In the afternoon, we went back to the geisha district, which was much more packed with tourists at this time of day. Here we toured a traditional tea house that still hosts geisha events to this day, and went shopping for some traditional crafts to take home with us. In the end, we picked up some matcha bowls and sake cups with gold details.

      We then stopped at a bar, where Keanan tried a local gin and I tried a local sake before heading back to our ryokan. We donned our yakatas and used the traditional bath before going out to dinner. Dinner tonight was Kanazawa curry - a very dark curry which we both had with the recommended Noto pork cutlet. It made it onto both of our lists of favorite foods that we've tried here!

      Tonight is our last night in a traditional Japanese room, which Keanan is relieved to hear when I tell him. Neither of us have really been getting very good sleep on these thin and firm futon mattresses on the ground...

      Kanazawa - Day 1

      31 Mac, Jepun ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C

      Craving more familiar breakfast fare, we started our day at café that was opened by Seattle natives before heading out to explore the city. After enjoying our coffee and breakfast sandwiches, we walked through Kanazawa Castle Park. The cherry blossoms here were showing some signs of life and the weather was beautiful for strolling through the park and castle ruins. Kanazawa castle burnt down several times through the centuries, with the latest fire not leaving much behind. The city recently (in the 90s) began the project of reconstructing the castle from the ruins. They're using traditional techniques and materials to restore the castle to its original appearance and we felt the explanations of these things really enhanced the experience of visiting a reconstructed site.

      The next area we explored was the samurai district, which contains several former samurai houses that have been turned into small museums. The amount of English information at these museums is almost overwhelming, and we learn all about the hierarchy of samurai and what their lives were like at each of these levels. One of the houses has a beautiful zen garden that we got to enjoy for a bit. We also stop at a very inconspicuous tea house for some matcha and wagashi and enjoy being sandwiched between a zen garden and the owner's collection of traditional dolls.

      Next, we head to Omicho Market for a very late lunch at a conveyor belt sushi restaurant. While Kanazawa is known for crab, neither of us are much of a fan of the raw crab sushi or the crab miso butter roll, but otherwise, everything is delicious! When you order specific things, rather than pulling them off the conveyor belt, they arrive on a tiny sushi shinkansen, which I thought was super cute.

      We then chilled at our ryokan for a bit before heading out for dinner and evening exploration. We get some tasty yakisoba and okonomiyaki for dinner and then wander the empty streets of the geisha district. We thought we'd be able to walk through the illuminated castle park, but it seems very closed, so we just walk the perimeter of it before calling it a night.

      Shirakawa and Kanazawa.

      3 November 2023, Jepun ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

      We set the alarms early to check out then walked, with our luggage, through the cold, foggy morning to catch our 7.20am bus to Shirakawa. We travelled through many tunnels and arrived at the World Heritage Site showcasing a building style known as gasshō-zukuri (traditional thatched houses). We stowed our luggage in a coin locker and then explored the village. The sun was emerging from the fog as we wandered about this lovely village. Later we stopped for an early lunch of skewered sesame dumplings and beef patties before making our way to the bus terminal for our bus to Kanazawa. It was running late due to traffic so we chatted to a couple from Melbourne while we waited. We arrived at Kanazawa at around 2, found our hotel and were able to check in. After we settled in to yet another tiny room we walked to Kanazawa old district near the river (about a 30 minute walk). Here there is a preservation area from the Edo era. In this area tourists often dress as geishas and there are streets of old timber buildings. On the way back we stopped at a convenience store (Lawsons) and picked up dinner which we heated in our room's microwave. We have a nice city view from our hotel.Baca lagi

      Et parce que c'est de nouveau l'heure du repas, on retourne au marché qui est bien vide de nouveau pour un donburi au thon (mi dos mi ventre) qui nous a instantanément réconcilié avec les sashimis 🤤🤤🤤

      Kanazawa Omicho Market

      4 Oktober 2019, Jepun ⋅ 🌧 21 °C

      Nach dem Zwischenstopp in SHIRAKAWAGO erreichen wir gegen Mittag Kanazawa, direkt am Meer gelegen. Es schüttet wie aus Eimern, ein Taifun fegt wenige hundert Kilometer vor der Küste an uns vorbei. Wir haben Bärenhunger und steuern direkt den OMICHO Markt an, der bekannt ist für seine tollen Meeresfrüchte. Wir probieren querbeet alles was komisch aussieht. Seeigel finden wir besonders "speziell", sehr nussig. Die Seeschnecken in der Auslage sind quicklebendig, daher lassen wir dieses kulinarische Vergnügen lieber aus.Baca lagi

      Kanazawa Burg und Gärten

      27 September 2023, Jepun ⋅ 🌧 27 °C

      Auf unserer heutigen Tour liefen wir vom Hotel zu einem Shinto-Schrein und von dort zu einer Parkanlage, bis wir hinter dieser zur Burg von Kanazawa gelangten. Da diese im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert weitgehend niedergebrannt war und erst 2001 teilweise wieder aufgebaut worden war, ist das Gebäude eher ein Museum, das in historischem Stil errichtet worden ist. Daher verbrachten wir dort nur wenig Zeit und gingen schnell zu einer Parkanlage in Japanischem Stil, die sich der Burg anschließt. Diese gefiel uns sehr gut und das Wetter war zwar bewölkt aber es regnete entgegen der Wettervorhersage noch nicht. Auf dem Rückweg zum Hotel besichtigten wir einen weiteren Shinto-Schrein. Dann ruhten wir uns im Hotel etwas aus, eher wir am Bahnhof unsere Zugfahrkarten nach Kyoto für den nächsten Tag besorgten. Eigentlich wollten wir dann das Samurai-Viertel von Kazumoto erkunden aber da es zu Regnen begann gingen wir zurück ins Hotel.Baca lagi

      Kanazawa

      26 Oktober 2022, Jepun ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

      We travelled to the city of Kanazawa, on the northwestern shore of Honshu. During World War II, Kanazawa was Japan’s second largest city (after Kyoto) to escape destruction by air raids. This means that parts of the old castle town, such as the Nagamachi samurai district and chaya entertainment districts, have survived.

      We toured the Kenrokuen Garden, heralded as one of the three most beautiful gardens in Japan. Very peaceful - not sure if I preferred this one or the one we saw in Kyoto - both very nice.

      We had a walking tour of Nagamachi samurai district and the Higashi Chaya District, famous for its well preserved wooden teahouses where geisha perform. Didn't see any geisha, more a haven for restaurants and shops selling products with gold leaf - a speciality of the area.

      As we didn't have an optional tour booked, five of us found a wonderful Sri Lankan restaurant. Every single dish was delicious. If you are ever in Kanazawa, go to The Spice Box.
