    With a fish theme, the Roadside Station Noto Shokusai Ichiba is located in Noto’s biggest fishing port—Nanao Port—and it is a wharf building packed with the charms of Noto including tourism guidance and restaurants, focusing particularly on the sale of specialty items from Noto and fresh fish from the morning’s catch. Right next to the ocean, you get a wide view of the peaceful waves in Nanao Bay. Approximately 18 minutes by car via Tatsuruhama Interchange on the Noto Satoyama Kaido.

    We decided to do the barbecue. We ordered one set with crab, shellfish, fish, etc, and could barely finish it between the two of us. We had fun grilling. Also we saw a live deep-sea fish that was for...

    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...

    A plaza with bronze statues of the white herons at the center of the legend behind the establishment of the Wakura Onsen hot spring district; a fountain in the plaza is supplied with water directly from a source spring. The fountain can be used to make “hot spring eggs,” custard-like soft boiled eggs; just put a basket of raw eggs in the fountain and 12-15 minutes later you can enjoy delicious hot spring eggs. The water comes direct from the spring and is extremely hot, so take care not to burn yourself while you have fun.

    和倉温泉の温泉街の中心ともいえる場所に、「湯元の広場」という一角がありました。 広場の真ん中には、和倉温泉の開湯伝説の主人公の白鷺の像がありました。そのブロンズ像から、和倉温泉は、古くは「湧浦温泉」と呼ばれていたことを知りました。

    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。

    風鈴作りを体験しました。 予約は不要で、ほぼ待つこともなし。 手袋やエプロンは貸してもらえるので、服装を気にすることもありません。 形や色など決めると職人さんが熱したガラスの塊を持ってきてくれて、アドバイス通りに息を吹き込みます。 10分程で形が出来ました。 冷ます必要があるので、当日持ち帰りはできませんが有料で宅配してくれます。

    海沿いの道を走りなから、急に大きな茅葺き屋根と立派な松、なんだろうと思ってよくみたら明治の館の文字、引き返して立寄りました。 茅葺きの古い民家かと思いきや内部は想像以上に立派、太い柱に梁、鴨居、今同じモノを建てようにも材料が揃わないし、金がかかり過ぎる、余程財力があるんだろうと思わされます。 日本海と言えば北前船、七尾湾は内海で穏やかだから、ここで廻船問屋として商売するのに適していたんでしょう。

    Ishikawa Pref. Nanaoshi Furukomachi Furuya-machi Takegucho entry point Otsuka 14-1.2.415-2
    "The ruins of Nanao Castle, a castle believed to have been built by the Noto Hatakeyama clan during the Warring States period. The name ""Nanao,"" meaning ""seven ridges,"" is derived from this castle use of seven ridgelines extending from the foot to the top of a mountain for its foundation, and the castle is believed to have been one of the largest in the country. The castle was captured by Uesugi Kenshin in 1577, after which members of the Uesugi and Maeda clans served as lords of the castle for a time. The castle's usefulness ended when a newer castle was built close to the port. Today, visitors can see the ruins of the stone walled Sakura horse riding grounds and get a view of distant Nanao Bay and the Noto Peninsula beyond the mountain from the ruins of the inner citadel. The cedars growing along the site's walking paths are kept trimmed, recreating what things must have looked like long ago when the castle was in use."
