What a gate! The Tsuzumimon Gate is based on the motif of a drum from Noh, a traditional Japanese performing art. At night, the gate is illuminated, creating a fantastic atmosphere.

🌐 Motenashi Dome: The stylish glass dome

- Huge dome made of glass and steel above the east exit

- Protects against rain and snow – typical of Kanazawa's weather

🚄 Transportation & Accessibility

- Bus terminal

🛍️ Shopping & Dining
