Things to do in Kanazawa, Chubu: The Best Fun Activities & Games

Samurai Yakata is a culture house in Kanazawa’s historic area where we aim at promoting traditional Japanese arts in a lighthearted, fun manner. Here you can experience traditional music and dances, and even wear traditional costumes, like Samurai, Ninja and Oiran (female entertainers) costumes. We perform a show everyday many times during the day, in which we have taiko, shamisen, traditional dances and stage combat performances. For the costume experience, you can either purchase a selfie plan or a photo shoot plan, in which our professional photographer will make you look even more fantastic. Other than this, you can experience the culture closely by trying to play the shamisen, fight with the sword using the kenjutsu technique and so on. Also, if you are organizing and event in Kanazawa, you can book our artists to prepare an opening performance for your event.
