Descrizione

Go beyond Kyoto! Discover Hokuriku: Zen at Eiheiji, UNESCO washi craft, Tojinbo sunset, Kanazawa gold leaf & gardens. A private journey for culturally curious travelers.
Day 1: Fukui – Zen Serenity, Paper Art & Coastal Majesty
Begin at Fukui Station/hotel. Journey to Eiheiji Temple, Japan’s revered Sōtō Zen headquarters. Join a guided zazen (seated meditation) session with philosophical insights, followed by quiet contemplation amid ancient cedar forests. Savor authentic Echizen soba lunch at a mountain teahouse. Create your own UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Echizen Washi at a master artisan’s studio: dip, press, and embed cherry blossoms or gold leaf into handmade paper (framed to take home!). Sip matcha in a traditional tea room while discovering washi’s role in tea ceremony aesthetics. Arrive at Tōjinbō Cliffs at golden hour—stroll along dramatic 25m basalt formations sculpted over 12 million years, with the Sea of Japan unfolding below. Check into a ryokan in Awara Onsen. Unwind in a private or open-air onsen overlooking the coast. Enjoy seasonal kaiseki dinner: snow crab (Feb–Mar) or spring yellowtail (Apr–May), with all dietary needs thoughtfully accommodated.
Day 2: Ishikawa – Golden Crafts, Gardens & Market Flavors
After a Japanese breakfast, explore Yunokuni no Mori Craft Village. Craft your own gold-leaf accessory (keychain or coaster) while learning why Kanazawa produces 99% of Japan’s gold leaf. Watch live demonstrations of Kutani-yaki porcelain and Kaga Yuzen silk dyeing. At Ōmicho Market, taste Hokuriku’s freshest delights: melt-in-your-mouth sweet shrimp, grilled oysters, and Kanazawa curry bread. Pick up playful Japanese phrases to connect warmly with local vendors. Stroll through Kenrokuen Garden (ranked Japan’s #1 landscape garden), admire spring-blossom-adorned yukizuri structures, then explore the circular 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art. Wander Higashi Chaya District’s preserved wooden lanes, glimpse a maiko (apprentice geisha), and savor gold-leaf soft-serve. Depart for Kanazawa Station or Komatsu Airport by 16:30.
