Port of Kanazawa
Omicho Market
Kanazawa - offering a world-class cruise destination with cultural, historical and culinary attractions
For quality and variety, Kanazawa is second to none. Our best-loved points of interest include locations as diverse as the Higashi Chaya Teahouse District, the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, the Nagamachi Samurai District, and Omicho Market.
Alluring as those destinations are, the true showpiece of Kanazawa has to be Kenrokuen Garden, which delights 3 million visitors annually. In its review of 27 locations in Kanazawa, the Michelin Guide Book awarded Kenrokuen a three-star rating for its elegance and visual harmony.
And why not try the superb Japanese fare for which Kanazawa is known? Japanese cuisine that Kanazawa offers is nothing but the best. Try the remarkably fresh sushi or the Kaga Kaiseki delicacy. After a meal, you can enjoy powdered green tea along with traditional confections at one of the many tea houses.
Ishikawa Prefecture, home to Kanazawa Port, boasts 36 traditional arts and crafts. Ishikawa is also home to nine craftsmen listed as Japanese National Living Treasures – by far the most per capita of any place in Japan – which accounts for Kanazawa’s abundance
of prestigious craftwork. During your stay, you’ll have the opportunity to purchase Kanazawa gold leaf, Kutani porcelain, Wajima lacquerware, or even Kaga Yuzen kimono.
Kanazawa Port is situated only 20 minutes from the heart of the city, but if your trip has you in the mood to get away from it all, visit the Shirakawago World Heritage Village or dip into one of the area’s renowned hot springs, all within an hour’s drive.
The Shinkansen (bullet train) rolled into town in 2015, connecting Kanazawa directly to Tokyo. The easy 2.5-hour train ride has broadened the possibilities of itineraries with Kanazawa not only as a port of call, but also as a turnaround port for rail & cruise, or fly & cruise via nearby Komatsu airport and the new Kanazawa Port Cruise Terminal which opened in April 2020.
Kanazawa is a perfect port of call for cruises along the Japan Sea, with convenient access to ports in Russia, South Korea and China.
Don’t miss your chance to experience this enchanting city. Visit Kanazawa and explore the real Japan.
