    Let's talk about our Kanazawa trip. Don't miss the cherry blossoms in Kanazawa Castle Park. Also, take some time to explore Kanazawa's local neighborhoods, such as Katamachi. Here, you'll discover charming streets lined with shops, cafes, and restaurants. One interesting fact that I learned from my tour guide is that Kanazawa is a walking city, so please remember to wear comfortable shoes for your visit
