We have not only the ordinary taxi but also Jumbo Taxi, Micro Bus and High-class Taxi.

I don't know but I think most of the girls love onsen (hot spring).

There are so many good onsen in Ishikawa. Yamashiro Onsen is one of the best, it takes 30 minutes by taxi from Komatsu airport. If you use taxi, it's very convinient.

Arrived at Komatsu airport!

Shibayamagata and Reiho Hakusan mountain are a beautiful sight on the way from the airport.

Nakaya Ukichirou Yukino Kagakukan (Snow museum) in Katayamazu Onsen. There is Shibayamagata behind the building. Nakayama Ukichirou is from Katayamazu Onsen, and he is a scientist in Hokkaido University who made an artificial snowflake for the first time in the world.

After coming here, you can see the snowflake in a different way.

Alllll right, let's head to Yamashiro Onsen!

What? A castle by the road!?

Oh, I see... It's Okashijo Kagahan (Sweets castle of Kagahan). You can see how to make Japanese sweets and taste some...It's like paradise. The most popular one is Meibtsu Kagahuku! Not too sweet and good taste!

　　

Kutani Mangetsu
There are a lot of Kutani ware.

　　　　　　　　

It's 2,500yen...? OH NO!!! It's 25,000,000 yen! Soooo expensive. My wallet got surprised.

On the other hand... There are a lot of things that you can buy without making your wallet sad! There are many things to see... The cups, plates,

Hello Kitty USB memory of Kutani ware!

Golf marker of Kutani ware! If you like to play golf, it would be cool to have one...

Since we are here, let's make our Kutani ware.

You can experience making one and also painting. One and only ONE (the same pronunciation "wan" means bowl in Japnese.)

　　　　　　　　　

What do you want to make? A plate? A soup bowl? A cup? There are instructors, so you can try even if you are a beginner!

Im feeling like it will be a good one. You won't feel dizzy from spinning it, don't worry!

After baking, it will be delivered after 3 weeks. There will be a joy even after this trip! Let's wish luck for being baked well!

Finally, Yamashiro Onsen! Soyu on the left, Onsen museum which has restored Soyu of Meiji era on the right. You can enjoy taking a bath a lot even a half day. I wanted to be greedy to take two baths but I was too lazy to change the clothes... I wish there was a secret way in the basement between two baths...(Just kidding).

Take a break in the foot bath. After taking a bath, your body is warm. Ahhh i want to dive into Onsen... ※If you want to dive... take a bath, go to Soyu.

Tachigui(stand-up-eating) Onsen Tamago(egg) makes the tourists fun.

Ontama (soft boiled egg) Icecream is the most famous food in Yamashiro Onsen. The finale is syoyu(soy sauce) on top of it! (The soy sauce is specially made for ice cream from Yamato Syoyu Miso company.) It tastes like Mitarashi Dango (It's one of the popular Japanese sweets) and custard cream. It's a good one!

I found Kutani ware in Torou (Stone lantern). It's very detailed in Yamashiro..

By the way, The huge daibutsu (statue of Buddha) that you could see from Kaga area is no longer open for visiting. (I went inside once long time ago. I remember it was hard to go up the stairs...)
