    Ishikawa Pref. Nanaoshi Wakuramachi Part 65-1
    This is an art museum produced by a world famous pastry chef called Hironobu Tsujiguchi who is from Nanao City in Wakura Town, Nanao City, Ishikawa Prefecture. The facility has three sections: an exhibition of sugar artworks by Mr. Tsujiguchi, a “Café” that provides original sweets and a shop called the “Patisserie Boutique” that sells take-out items such as cakes and baked goods. Not only can visitors enjoy the fusion of sweets and art, but original sweets available only in Wakura are also popular.

    和倉温泉は特に観光するところが無かったので辻口さんの美術館に寄ってみました。美術館というにはちょっと無理があります。チョコレートや飴細工の大きな作品が数点飾ってある1室があるのみ。わざわざ見に行くほどでもなかったです。無料でした。 隣のカフェは夕方に行ったので閉店間近で店内で食べれずホテルに持ち帰りました。 人気のお菓子はどれですか?人気のケーキはどれですか?の私の問いに案内もなく商品名をボソッと...

    Ishikawa Nanao-shi Notojima Koda Machi 125-10
    Located on a hill near Roadside Station Notojima, this art museum dedicated to glass art has an exterior appearance resembling a space station.

    Ishikawa Pref. Nanaoshi Komaruyamadai 1-1
    An art museum around a five-minute taxi ride from JR Nanao Station. Distinguished by its seven domed roofs, the museum displays a collection of numerous works connected to the northern Ishikawa Prefecture region. The Ikeda Collection, consisting of works collected by Nanao City businessman Fumio Ikeda, forms the core of the museum's collection. The museum holds regular exhibitions and visitors can see a variety of works of art, including Mino ware, Karatsu ware, and other types of pottery, as well as Japanese paintings, sculptures, crafts, and more. There's also a high-definition video mini-theater which continuously screens documentary videos on the works of Nanao-born painter Hasegawa Tohaku.

    大人の入館料350円。小さな美術館で相応。 七尾出身の長谷川等伯の展示は常設ではなく、ビデオだけ鑑賞。少し残念。 桃山時代を代表する焼物として、織部焼と唐津焼の展示をしていた。期間毎にテーマ変わるそう。 和倉温泉の寄り道にのんびり鑑賞するのもあり。

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.
