Nagamachi is the well preserved samurai district located to the west of Kanazwa Castle. It was formerly the area where the samurai of Kanazawa lived with their families. I read that it looks much the same today as it did during the Edo era, with canals and cobbled streets that run between earthen tile-topped walls. I felt like I had gone back in time as I walked in this area.

It looks like a very interesting place to explore.
I think It's hard to maintain, but It's still wonderful that It's beautiful. When I take a walk, I feel like I can slip back in time to the Edo period.
Thank you for the photos.
Hi Pamela: Nice tour, I love the rocks coming out of the ground, they look so natural there.

It's so peaceful -- you must have arrived on a day when no one else was visiting!
Great places to visit. Love looking at your pics.
Kanazawa is such a great place to visit and experience a time slip. This kind of history lesson really sinks in - we can easily let the imagination flow and become a resident.
I am impressed that the information is written in correct English. Well done, Kanazawa Tourist Promotion.
What a great place you discovered! Did you see a lot of people exploring wearing traditional clothing?
