    Ishikawa Pref. Kagashi Yutakamachi B 59-1
    A place where you can enjoy fruit-picking all year long, Kaga Fruits Land features a vast lot with a roofed barbeque area for rainy days, which is quite popular. Not only can you see, touch, and pick in-season fruits, you get to savor the taste of fresh ripe fruit. The genuine pizza cooked in a stone kiln is great for lunch. About 15 minutes by car via Kaga Interchange or Katayamazu Interchange on the Hokuriku Expressway.

    "A cultural experience facility operating out of a remodeled building once used as a training hall for geisha located in the Katayamazu Onsen hot spring village. Here you can try your hand at making a traditional Japanese dyed textile. A type of tie-dying known as Akiko-zome, the name is derived from a poem by Akiko Yosano, who visited Katayamazu Onsen long ago. The poem mentions the elegant, light purple textiles decorated with patterns in a technique called ""dorozome"" (mud dying)- ""The wind rises / A wave of light purple moves / Katayamazu in the early spring."" Participants can dye a handkerchief or scarf with their own original design."

    1920年に建てられた片山津温泉の芸妓の練習の場だった建物です。べんがら格子が美しく大正ロマンが感じられる施設です。館内では、「豆腐づくり体験」や「晶子染め体験」や「水引体験」ができます。現在、寄席やイベントブ会場として使われたりしているそうです。芸妓さんの源氏名が入った稲荷提灯や芸妓札などが展示されています。

    Ishikawa Kaga-shi
    Sugaya town is located about five minutes from Yamanaka Onsen town, and is a woodworking town filled with skilled craftspeople. This kominka (old house) style building at the quiet mountain foot offers a chance to get direct training from local craftspeople. Yamanaka Onsen's traditional craft, Yamanaka Lacquerware, is also called Woodgrain ware because of its ultimate feature, the way it brings out the natural shape of the woodgrain. Yamanaka Woodgrain Lacquerware is also a registered Intangible cultural property in Ishikawa prefecture. In addition to offering a close up view of wood-turning lathes inside the hall, you can make your own piece with instruction from experts. You can make soup bowls, salad bowls, matcha tea bowls, or high pedestal bowls called Goroku-wan.

Long, thin Ishikawa prefecture runs along the Sea of Japan up into Noto Peninsula. Highlights of the seaside towns lining the west coast include Kanazawa, often described as a "Little Kyoto" thanks to its old wooden tea houses and geisha culture as well as its picturesque Japanese garden, Kenroku-en.
