Learn more about Kanazawa and Kyoto: https://www.japan-guide.com/ad/mitsui-hotels/

Kyoto and Kanazawa are must-visit destinations for those who love traditional art and culture. Kyoto was the imperial capital for over 1,000 years, while Kanazawa was home to one of Japan’s wealthiest samurai families. Because of this, both cities are known for their rich cultural heritage and well-preserved historic areas, which survived wartime with minimal damage. In this two-day trip, we explore some of the top highlights these cities have to offer.

  1. Hey japan guide
    Lot's of love from india 🇮🇳❤️
    Please make a video on best train routes in japan

  2. Happy Belated New Years. Hope that this year, there will be more quality videos that i can learn for travels in Japan.

  3. Our favorite route in Japan: Kyoto – Kanazawa – day trip in Wakura or Kaga onsen – Toyama – Takayama. A crowd-free, affordable trip to enjoy food and scenery of ancient Japan.

  4. oh men when i see the Hotel in Kyoto there were very nice and friendly but travel group, i still get emotional everything gone wrong at that hotel not Hotel self but travel group we had some hard words because my bankpass was not good and cash money running out and travelgide refuse to call help from travel agency.
    Untill my anger w at came height piont, it wasn,t fun anymore with 4 days to go before we went home oh men 😢

  5. Nice video, but the Kanazawa's map puzzled me. It shows Kenrokuen in place of Kanazawa Castle!

  6. I planned to visit Takayama , and also want to visit Kanazawa. But, it seems Takayama and Kanazawa almost have the same attraction . Is it worth to visit Kanazawa ?

  7. I have done this trip twice and would do it a third if the opportunity arises. These are wonderful cities and people to visit.

  8. In the US, gold leaf on dishes will charge you $1000k 😂😂. I miss Kanazawa. I had gold leaf ice cream twice.

  9. visited Kanazawa once and definitely will come back for longer stay, the city has its own charm, so serene and peaceful, less tourist too compared with Kyoto.

  10. Hi there, we like your videos and also like to know where did you get your backpack? Txs 💜 🇺🇸

  11. amazing place ❤ may i know what backpack you were using? been meaning to ask few videos back 😊

  12. Off topic: This channel deserves more recognition. I've been following japan-guide for 6 years and this channel/website helped me a lot with my planning to Japan. I just hope more people would support this channel. The cinematography and the travel details are one of the best out there. Very informative. Best wishes.
