Kanazawa: Where Art, History, and Elegance Meet

It goes without saying that Kenrokuen is a special place of scenic beauty and one of the three most famous gardens in Japan❣️
The foundations of Kenrokuen were laid in 1676 by Maeda Tsunanori, the fifth lord of the Kaga domain. It was later almost completely destroyed in a fire, but was redeveloped in 1776. It was Matsudaira Sadanobu who named it "Kenrokuen"
😳
It seems that Kenrokuen was opened to the public in 1874 after the Meiji Restoration.
I went there early in the morning for free admission☀️
Kenrokuen in the early morning was the best, to say the least👍 There were few tourists, so I was able to stroll around very quietly. People who live nearby walk around and naturally greet you with "Good morning", creating a peaceful atmosphere😊
The greenery sparkling in the morning sun is so beautiful that I wanted to watch it forever🌿✨
It was easy to take photos of the sightseeing spots such as the Kotoji Lantern in the early morning📷As you can see, there are no people in the photos at all lol
Apparently, you have to wait in line during the day😌
The free early morning admission times change depending on the season, so I recommend checking in advance😉
