Kenrokuen’s name refers to six qualities a perfect garden should combine, from spaciousness to flowing water, and it does manage all of them. A bowl of matcha at the old Shigure-tei teahouse inside the grounds is the best way to slow down here.
Captivate your senses and discover the tranquility of the Kenrokuen Tea Ceremony Experience in Kanazawa, where a timeless ritual unveils the essence of Japan's revered tea culture.
