My best trip to Japan Kanazawa - Matsumoto - Nagoya #deepjapan

In april my husband and I went to Japan. The first time that I traveled this far, but it was worth it.

This is a sequel if you like read also my other post about the other city’s

Kanazawa when we went there was a lot of rain, and rain …and rain. It’s a pretty city with a lot to see. the gardens are lovely, but we went to all the tea houses. The tea house I strongly recommend is morihachi main store. It’s a tea house with a history and the Japanse confectionery are so good. We did sit in the tea house with a lovely view in the garden. I also took a lot of confectionery for the rest of the trip. ~nom nom

We went to Matsumoto and two thing I strongly recommed is the castle and the frog street. The frog street (Nawata street) has a little boutiques with a lot of frog. With three frogs of stone. I’m not sure about the history why the frogs are their, but I read that when a typhoon came the frogs went away and never returned. To remain the spirit of the street they made their own frogs.

We did Nagoya in one day, multiple museums, the castle and garden. I would recommed taking more time. But the thing I loved the most is the Toyota Commemorative Museum of Industry and Technology. It’s a museum telling the completed history about Toyota. I’m not someone that love cars, but this museum tells the story wide perspective, I loved it.

Thank you for the messages

@TonyAlexander Yes is true, but everything looks a little gloomy in the rain. But it was still really beautiful.

@Nyainurjanah The Castle in Matsumoto is pretty and has a nickname The crow Castle

@955HIRO I understand that Kanazawa is your favorite place. I hope someday that I can return to enjoy more of the castle and the garden.

Hi @Justemeline

The Kanazawa and the tea houses etc sound interesting but I think like you, I would most enjoy the Toyota Commemorative Museum of Industry and Technology.

Hello, @Justemeline

Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m happy to read that as a Japanese LG.

I have never heard about the frog street. It sounds very interesting. There are many frog statues and dolls at my parent’s home:-)

Just in case, I listed up your visited places. Are they correct? Using links like this, other local guides are able to check the place detail soon. Please try it the next time.
