Kinpakuya Sakuda Flagship Store
Anyone can try their hand at applying gold leaf at the long-established "Kinpakuya Sakuda Flagship Store," located about a 3-minute walk from "Higashi Chaya District," a tourist spot that represents Kanazawa culture.

The works are popular with people of all ages because they can be taken home right away. Held 4 times a day. Advance reservation required.
The last thing I'm worried about when I'm planning to go out is the weather. Indoor facilities can relieve you from such worries. How you enjoy it depends on your plan, such as art galleries and museums related to the area, hot springs with a rich local flavor, and factory tours. Why not plan some indoor leisure time with your family or as a couple?

At the Jiyukajin Mizuhiki Museum in Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture, you can enjoy a variety of works, including original Mizuhiki "Shiki no Ito" lampshades made in 200 colors that transport you to a fantastical space. In the gallery on the 3rd floor of the adjoining store, there is a hands-on class where you can learn how to make mizuhiki in about 30 minutes by a mizuhiki craftsman, and there is also a display and sale of mizuhiki interior goods and accessories. Yuriko Hirose, a mizuhiki artist who won the Kanazawa City Cultural Activities Award, is spreading the word about modern mizuhiki. Recommended for making memories of your trip to Kanazawa.
