Catch the train at Kanazawa Station, home to an impressive display of modern Japanese architecture. In front of the station's entrance stands the grand Tsuzumi-mon, a red gate in the form of a traditional Japanese hand drum. The main structure, the Motenashi (Welcome) Dome, consists of a high, swooping roof of steel frames and a spherical glass design. This area also has shopping stores and sometimes hosts small events.

  改札口外には金沢土産のお店が集まる施設があり新幹線乗る前に買い物が出来ます。 また駅から地下道もありある程度の場所なら雨にも濡れずに行くことが出来ます。 札幌みたいに長くはないですが。  more »

  Outside the ticket gate, there is a facility for Kanazawa souvenir shops, so you can shop before you ride the Shinkansen. There is also a underpass from the station, you can go without getting wet in the rain if a certain place. It is not long like Sapporo.

  東京からの新幹線の乗り入れでメチャクチャ混んでいる金沢駅のイメージがあったのですが、久しぶりに来てみたら綺麗な駅とそれなりの人の多さでしたがすっきりとした感じで良かったです。一つだけ思ったことですが、長椅子に腰を掛けて時間待ちをしていましたが西出口（海側かな？）から肌を突き刺す寒い風が構内を吹き抜けていきずっと座っているには寒すぎました。  more »

  I had an image of Kanazawa station that is crowded with the bullet train from Tokyo, but it was good in the feeling that it was clean though it was a beautiful station and a large number of people when it came after a long time. I thought it was just one thing, but I was waiting for the time to sit on the settee, but the West exit (sea side?) It was too cold to sit all the way through the cold wind blowing through the premises.
