Garden Park Must See

• 

Explore the natural scenery and nooks and crannies in Kenrokuen Garden, a sprawling park that once served as the outer gardens of Kanazawa Castle. Ponds, bridges, and teahouses punctuate the grounds, full of blossoming trees and walking trails. Look for Japan's oldest fountain, which operates via natural water pressure, and for Flying Geese Bridge, made of eleven individual stones that mimic geese flying in formation. A pedestrian way outside the garden's paid entrance is lined with picturesque shops and restaurants. Before you head to Kanazawa, plan trip itinerary details with our user-friendly Kanazawa trip maker website , to make sure you see all that Kanazawa has to offer, including Kenrokuen Garden.

  初めて行くので、ライトアップの少し前から散策し、ライトアップまで満喫しようと思っていましたが、ライトアップ期間中夕方は17時で一旦閉園され、再入場になると聞いたため、再入場時間まで待ってから入りました。 入場料は300円でしたが、ライトアップの時間帯は入場無料でした。ビックリ！ お金払ってでも見たい程素敵でした。 鑑賞できる所に制限がありましたが、充分満喫できました。  more »

  I explore the light up a little while ago, so go for the first time, try to relax until the light is illuminated during the evening at 17:00 once closed down was heard and the re-entry to re-entry time wait. Admission was 300 yen and free entrance was lit up times. Outdoor peeing By paying money so you want to look nice. To be limited, but could make enough.

  日本の三大庭園ということで楽しみにしていましたが、割と普通でした。 お抹茶が飲める茶屋は歴史感じる建物でした。  more »

  Was looking forward to in three great gardens of Japan, but was relatively normal. Tea drinking green tea was a building feel the history.
