WALKING IN THE MARSH OF GOLD – Japan: from the legend, you can feel Kanazawa’s smell

When your geographical horizon extends – for business or pleasure – you have the wonderful opportunity to hear you inside, like the perfectly proportioned man (created by Leonardo da Vinci), correlating the symmetry of human anatomy to the symmetry of the universe. What you see, hear, eat and feel, it’s all inside the Vitruvian approach to life. To organize your trip by train in Japan, you can consult www.kanazawa-tourism.com where you will certainly find interesting ideas to realize an unforgettable experience in Kanazawa, the city of the samurai, where you will arrive after two and a half hours by train. Located in the central part of the mainland of Japan, Kanazawa is the prefectural capital of Ishikawa Prefecture. Certainly, when you breathe the air of this city of Japan, you realize that you are doing inside you the true essence of this nation, where tradition and modernity come together, in beauty, in tune with nature. Kanazawa is a leading tourist city where 8 million tourists visit every year. Yes, you too will see the Asanogawa river, wondering how it happened that architectural miracle that is before thee: skyscrapers and ancient wooden houses, offices and geishas walking – almost without touching the ground – wearing their kimono.

Certainly you will want to get into a “chaya” – the tea house – savoring, together with a drink, even the ancient gestures of this rite, made of water and valuable green leaves of a tea that was born and raised around the city. To get to the Kenrokuen park, where you can admire a sea of cherry trees in bloom, let yourself be guided by your nose. In fact, it will be the sweet smell of the place of peace to guide you. “Myth no ume matsuri” (in late March), or “Myth no sakura matsuri” (in the first half of April), are two must-see events, which invite you to stroll in nature. When you’re in the ancient park, do not forget to walk over the bridge Hanamibashi (stopped a little over there, and breathe in that charming place across the breadth and isolation, the antiquity and the artifice, the d ‘flow water and the view. www.it.jal.com

You have walked a long way, but try a few more steps to the north of the park, where you expect the experience of Omicho Market: 200 fish stalls and fruit, but also the many restaurants. On the other side of the park awaits the contemporary art museum (but do not forget that, next to the museum, you can experience an exciting journey into the past of this city). Perhaps, out of all your photos, it will be only an image that will turn into posters. Perhaps, that poster is the gift of Nagamachi, where among ancient ocher-colored houses, which hide gardens and fountains gushing, awaits the wonder of a house: that of Nomura samurai. Before leaving, certainly you want to buy something. Good. You should go in the Katamachi district: choose your coffee and walk in department stores, not forgetting the special scent of cherry blossoms. http://www.akatsukiya.jp/english/
