HAKUICHI is the only place in Kanazawa to offer programs for up to 70 people. We can accommodate groups of over 100 by altering groups for the museum tour and for the experiences. We will be more than happy to suggest plans, so feel free to inquire.
As we have received many overseas groups, we can offer the full range of services. Brochures in English, Chinese and Korean are also available.
Accessible to major tourist destinations (Kenrokuen, Omicho Market, Higashi Chayagai) in 30 minutes. Just five-minute drive from Kanazawa Nishi Exit, you can easily include this facility before or after the visit to the city.
If you only have time for the museum tour or want to take time for gold-leafing experience, we can offer you the perfect plan to meet your wishes. Feel free to inquire.
If you want to change your plan due to the bad weather or find yourself with extra time, let us know. We can arrange a program at the time of your choosing right on the same day.
You can enjoy a wide array of activities, not only the experiences and museum tours but shopping and indulging yourself with gold leaf sweets at our café. Visitors of all ages sure can have fun.
Accommodates up to six coaches. Our staffs will show your drivers where to park, so rest assured and visit us.
We are open throughout the year, including weekends and holidays. So visit us anytime. *We are closed only on January 1.
We can accommodate up to 30 people at our “Kanazawa Bikazari Asano” in the popular tourist destination of Higashi Chayagai.
