Japan's Most Underrated City? Kanazawa with Kids 🇯🇵

We honestly weren't expecting Kanazawa to become one of our favourite cities in Japan... but after just a few hours exploring, we completely understood why those who visit fall in love with it. In this family travel vlog, we spend 48 hours exploring Kanazawa with our two young kids - wandering through beautifully preserved geisha districts, visiting one of Japan's most stunning gardens, trying famous gold leaf experiences, enjoying a traditional Japanese tea ceremony, and discovering why this peaceful city might just be Japan's most underrated destination. From Kanazawa Castle and the breathtaking Kenroku-en Garden to Higashi Chaya District, authentic matcha and wagashi, Omicho Market, Kanazawa curry, and the historic samurai district, every stop leaves us wondering why more people don't include Kanazawa on their Japan itinerary.
