About Kanazawa

Kanazawa is the capital of Ishikawa Prefecture, on the west coast of central Honshu. For centuries it was the seat of the Maeda clan, whose wealth shaped its craft traditions, including gold leaf, lacquerware and Kutani porcelain. The city is known for its preserved samurai and geisha districts and for Kenrokuen, one of Japan's most celebrated landscape gardens, which lies a short distance from the centre. The surroundings combine a flat coastal plain with hills rising inland.

What you can watch

The camera shows the urban scene as the day moves on, so the view changes with the light and the weather. Daytime offers the clearest impression of the roofs, streets and any sea haze, while evening brings city lights. Snow and rain can change the look of the streets considerably, so check the current conditions shown on this page before you watch. Views depend on the angle of the stream and the weather at the time.

Climate and getting around

Kanazawa has cold, snowy winters because of moisture from the Sea of Japan, while summers are warm and humid. Spring and autumn are generally the most comfortable seasons for walking the old districts. The city is easy to reach by train, and the Kenrokuen Garden camera in the Ishikawa area is a few kilometres from the city centre, making it a useful companion view.
