▮Stay within the World Heritage Site: Shirakawa-go Gassho Village
Savor the gentle elegance of the “Yui” culture within a century-old Gassho-zukuri house, and feel the warm hospitality of the generational owners. Let’s slow down time together and return to the original landscape that modern Japanese people still hold dear.
▮ Step into Kanazawa, the city refined by art
Ever wanted to experience the craftsmanship of gold leaf artisans with your own hands?
Amid the delicate shimmer of gold, feel the breath, focus,
and devotion that bring a single sheet of gold leaf to life—
the very essence of Kanazawa’s purest aesthetic.
And as night quietly deepens and lanterns sway along the teahouse streets,perhaps you’ll find yourself crossing paths with a geikowho carries a century-old culture in her poise—
and listen as she shares the flowing stories of this city.
