Kanazawa is a city where the history and culture of Kaga Hyakumangoku are inherited, coexisting with a modern sensibility. Along with the castle town atmosphere of Korinbo and Nagamachi, the prestige of Kenrokuen Garden and Kanazawa Castle, and the sophisticated cityscape lined with museums and hotels, Kanazawa's unique food culture has flourished. In such a Kanazawa, you can enjoy high-quality afternoon tea that reflects the local aesthetic. The charm lies in the delicate sweets incorporating seasonal Japanese ingredients and local produce, pairings with Kaga Bocha and Japanese black tea, and elegant tea time enjoyed in a tranquil hotel lounge—allowing you to feel the atmosphere of Kanazawa, a castle town. Combining this with the experience of walking through the town in a kimono allows you to more deeply appreciate the harmony with the cobblestone streets, gardens, and historic townscapes, which is unique to Kanazawa. In Korinbo, you can enjoy sophisticated city walks and the quality of hotel lounges; in Nagamachi Samurai District, kimono figures stand out beautifully against the atmospheric scenery; and around Kenrokuen Garden, you can enjoy a special day amidst the beauty of the four seasons.
