Travel Log - Japan 2018 Day 2

Writers' note: Happy Lunar New Year! Took me an entire month to get back and continue my Japan Travel Log Series. ๐Ÿ˜…
Click here to read from the 1st post of this travel log! ๐Ÿ˜„

4 November 2018 (A day of sightseeing in Kanazawa City)

1st stop: Omicho Market
Map: 50 Kamiomicho, Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture 920-0905, Japan

 Our hotel was just diagonally opposite the market so it was extremely convenient to get to. 

Oden store in the Market (with a side beef cart)


 THIS, MY FRIENDS... is NOTO GYU (beef) - 100g at 2000ๅ††. ***A MUST TRY***

I rarely ever eat beef like that (steak form) - but THIS... have got me craving like. damn.
*self-note: I am definitely coming back to Kanazawa*


Next stop: Kanazawa Castle Park 
Map: 1็•ช1ๅท Marunouchi, Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture 920-0937, Japan






There's just something about castles that are fascinating... look at all these attention to details! 
*note: steep steps (within the castle building)*

Living the tai tai life for a short moment... Great tea, great dessert, great view, great company.
*note to self: the gold plated vanilla (or was it milk) ice-cream just tasted like vanilla ice-cream ๐Ÿ˜…


3rd stop: Kenrokuen Garden (just next to Kanazawa Castle)
Map: 1 Kenrokumachi, Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture 920-0936, Japan









Next stop: 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art
Map: ๏ผ‘ไธ็›ฎ-2-1 Hirosaka, Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture 920-8509, Japan




There were little trumpet looking installations around the area (quite like those science-sound experiments where speaking through one trumpet will be heard from another trumpet elsewhere)...

There was an oji-san that went "konnichiwa" and kept waving at us and we said hi back. It was so cute. hahahha.


 There was some kind of a food festival held over the Sunday that we went but they were already closing/closed




Last stop: Dinner @ Menyataiga 
Map: 6-3 Horikawamachi, Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture 920-0847, Japan


There was a bit of a queue despite the slight drizzle but the staff were so kind.. they brought out umbrellas for their queuing customers! ๐Ÿ’˜



Just look at it... Mmmmmmmmm


Bonus: Admiring the Station
