    "A museum located on the tip of Kanazawa Port which presents the achievements of mechanical doll maker Ono Benkichi, displays Japanese karakuri mechanical dolls, and contains interactive exhibits on karakuri. Ono was an inventor who lived in Ono Village (now Ono Town) in Ishikawa District at the end of the Edo period. Using what was then cutting edge technology, Ono created a variety of inventions, and the karakuri dolls he crafted during his lifetime are a testament to his mechanical skills. The museum presents the world of Japanese karakuri dolls with a focus on Ono. The museum's exhibits include well-known karakuri dolls such as a tea carrying doll, and also occasionally holds demonstrations which enable visitors to view the dolls in action up close.

    Ishikawa Kanazawa-shi Kanaiwahonmachi Ro 55
    This museum memorializes Zeniya Gohei, a maritime merchant who lived at the end of the Edo period, engaged in trade across Japan and with other nations during a time of national isolation using kitamaebune cargo ships, and supported the one million “koku” economy of Kaga. The museum was built in 1997 to honor the man’s foresight and achievements, collect and conserve items connected to the merchant, and provide information on him. An animated video shown in the museum presents a good portion of Gohei’s life. Visitors can also get a sense of what shipping was like at the time via a 1/4th scale kitamaebune cargo ship. The adjoining Zenigo no Yakata was once the merchant’s home and three-story kura warehouse, moved to this site and restored to its full glory. Visitors can view articles which belonged to the man and his family and imagine what life was like then.

    The executive director personally showed us around and explained the detailed story of this tragic family. If you are familiar with Japanese history, especially Edo era, it will be a very interesting...

    A market filled with fresh-caught seafood from Ishikawa Prefecture located in Kanazawa Port a 15 minute walk from the Kanazawa Port Exit of JR Kanazawa Station. Here you'll find the freshest seafood put up for sale immediately after being bought wholesale at auction. In addition, because the market's shops are directly operated by sellers and the seafood doesn't pass through the hands of various middlemen, the prices are extremely reasonable. There are six shops in the market, including a shop where you can enjoy a seafood rice bowl on the spot, a shop selling vegetables, and a shop which carries processed foods like dried fish and tsukudani foods boiled and preserved in soy sauce. Only in November and December, you can buy Kano crab and snow crab.
