Overview
Ishikawa is a prefecture on the Japanese island of Honshu. Sitting on the seacoast, the capital city of Kanazawa is home to the "perfect garden" of Kenroku-en, designed to be beautiful during every season. The adjacent Kanazawa Castle, once home to feudal lords, has been partly reconstructed. Across the Asano River, teahouses from the Edo period have been preserved in the Higashi Chaya District.
