Super convenient and fun to explore! It's right inside Kanazawa Station, so it's perfect for a quick visit before or after your train. There are tons of places to eat and shop—famous dessert shops, souvenirs, gold leaf products, you name it. If you're looking for Kanazawa-exclusive snacks, there are so many options here. The whole place feels clean and stylish, and it's not too crowded, so walking around is really comfortable. Especially on rainy days or when it's freezing in winter, it's awesome to just wander around and grab a bite here.

Iwate Safari Park

A safari park in Ichinoseki City, Iwate Prefecture. Set on rolling hills 200m above sea level, the park features wide grasslands where many animals live, from herbivores such as giraffes and zebras to carnivores including lions and Bengal tigers. In the free-roaming area, you can observe the animals from inside a safari bus.

The park is huge, and a lot of the animals aren’t kept in cages. Instead, they roam in more open spaces, so driving through feels like a mini wildlife adventure.

You can see big animals like lions, tigers, bears, and giraffes up close, which is super exciting! There’s also an interactive area where you can feed smaller animals, and kids would absolutely love it.

The only thing is that the park is pretty large, so driving yourself is definitely more convenient. Really fun and unique.

It's not too far from downtown and the transportation is fairly convenient. The grounds aren't very big, but it's quiet and there aren't too many tourists.

Bansuiso

Bansuiso was built as a villa by earl Hisamatsu Sadakoto in 1922, a descendant of the former Matsuyama feudal lord. It was built in the French Neo-Renaissance style thanks to Sadakoto’s experience living in France as a military officer in the army.

I paid JPY 300 to go inside, but honestly, there's not much to see. It's just a straightforward French-style building.

I only realized after visiting that Lee Ufan is actually really well-known internationally.

Yamato Museum (Kure Maritime Museum)

A museum introducing the Yamato, the world’s largest battleship during World War II. Visitors can also learn about Kure’s history and science and technology. The 1/10-scale battleship Yamato, the symbol of the Yamato Museum, has been recreated based on original blueprints, underwater survey footage, and crew testimony. It continues to share the importance of peace and the excellence of science and technology with future generations.

Hiroshima's Kure City is a major shipbuilding and military port, with a highly developed defense industry. The 1:10 scale model of the Yamato battleship really shows off Japan's military strength.
