The landscape of the precincts that are visible every seasons is reputed to bring about a definite healing in our daily lives, and the water of the handwater building, which continues to pump up from the basement, Please bring it back.

Oyama Shrine has a beautiful garden with a pond that you can walk over. There are a lot of ancient trees within the premises that give the shrine a mystic atmosphere. The main gate has a stained glass window, which makes its appearance unique. The rear exit will take you Kanazawa castle.

We struggled a bit to understand how we could get tickets for the ninja temple. We had to call someone through an intercom next to the gift shop to ask for a spot on a tour. We were lucky and we could join the tour that started 5 minutes later. We paid 1000 yen per person and got a binder with English explanation since the tours are only in Japanese. The temple has a really interesting architecture with a lot of hidden rooms, secret floors and other ninja features. We enjoyed our visit very much.
