Toyama Metropolis, close to Kanazawa, is one in every of my new favourite locations to go to. The shinkansen stops right here on its approach to Kanazawa and I extremely advocate spending an evening right here to discover the world.

The Toyama Glass Artwork Museum constructing was designed by Kengo Kuma and has a surprising inside. The town’s public library is right here.

Admission for adults is barely ¥200 ($1.50) and contains energetic items by American Dale Chihuly. There’s a separate admission for particular reveals. The present store has a colourful choice of glass ochoko or guinomi saké cups and way more.
