★★★★☆ View & landmark
No admission charge for anyone. Parking or transport may still cost.
A preserved geisha quarter of two-storey wooden teahouses with wooden lattice fronts, quieter and more intact than Gion. Free to walk. One or two houses are open to visit for a small fee, and a gold-leaf workshop will let you apply it yourself - Kanazawa produces almost all of Japan's.
