Komatsu: A Symphony of History and Nature for Your Trip

Komatsu Travel Guide Komatsu City, located in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, is a serene and charming city with unique natural and cultural landscapes. - Getting There: Fly directly to Komatsu Airport, with direct flights available from Shanghai, Hong Kong, and other locations. From Tokyo, take the Shinkansen (via Kanazawa) to Komatsu, which takes about 2 hours and 40 minutes. The city bus network is well-developed. Board from the rear door and exit from the front. Remember to take a numbered ticket when boarding and pay the fare according to the ticket when exiting. - Recommended Attractions: Natadera Temple, founded around 717 AD by Taicho, has seven buildings designated as National Important Cultural Properties, and offers breathtaking natural scenery. Komatsu Castle Ruins stand as a testament to history and a symbol of culture. In spring, stroll along the Senbon Sakura Street and the Lagoon Cherry Blossom Corridor, where 1,700 cherry trees bloom in unison. Yunokuni-no-Mori, located in the Awazu Onsen area, offers experiences in traditional crafts such as Wajima-nuri lacquerware and Kutani-yaki painting, as well as photo spots like the Umbrella Sky. - Recommended Cuisine: Try Noto beef barbecue, known for its tender and juicy meat. Kanazawa gold leaf cuisine is unique, incorporating gold leaf into dishes for an exquisite and delicious experience. Onsen manju, sweet and fluffy steamed buns, are a must-try local treat. Savor these delicacies at local izakayas and traditional restaurants. - Recommended Accommodation: For an onsen experience, choose hotels near Awazu Onsen, such as "Yukoyuko Resort," where you can enjoy open-air baths. For budget-friendly options, consider business hotels like Toyoko Inn. - Best Time to Visit: Komatsu is beautiful year-round. Enjoy cherry blossoms in spring, cool breezes in summer, fiery maple leaves in autumn, and enchanting snowscapes in winter. During your trip, respect local customs and observe the rules at onsen facilities.
