A Rainy Start to My Hokuriku Road Trip | Toyama Black Ramen & Kanazawa at Night

When life feels busy, take a quiet day off in Japan. Hi, I'm Nobu. During Japan's Silver Week holiday, I left Koriyama for a four-day solo road trip through Hokuriku. On day one, I travel through Toyama and spend the night in Kanazawa. I walk from Toyama Station to Fugan Canal Kansui Park, try Toyama Black ramen with rice and a raw egg, and reach Amaharashi Coast just as the rain returns. The Tateyama Mountains are hidden, but a local train passes by the sea. After dark in Kanazawa, I enjoy a seafood bowl and take a quiet walk through the illuminated castle and gardens. I hope this small journey gives you a moment to slow down. Turn on captions to follow the story. If you'd like to come along on day two, from Kanazawa to Yamanaka Onsen, please subscribe. Thank you for watching. See you on the next day off. 【Chapters】 0:00 Opening 1:11 Leaving Koriyama 1:56 Bandaisan Service Area 2:48 Yoneyama Service Area 3:57 Toyama Station 5:01 Fugan Canal Kansui Park 7:06 Toyama Black Ramen 8:05 Rainy Amaharashi Coast 10:11 Driving to Kanazawa 11:16 Kanazawa Station & Tsuzumi-mon Gate 12:20 Seafood Bowl at Omicho Market 16:43 A Night Walk in Kanazawa 18:40 Kanazawa Castle at Night 21:22 Kenrokuen Garden 24:14 Nagamachi Samurai District 27:17 Back to Kanazawa Station & Late-Night Ramen 27:50 Day One Wrap-Up 【Places in this video】 Bandaisan Service Area / Yoneyama Service Area Toyama Station / Fugan Canal Kansui Park Nishimachi Taiki Futakuchi Branch Amaharashi Coast Kanazawa Station & Tsuzumi-mon Gate Omicho Market / Tsuruya Ozaki Shrine / Kanazawa Castle / Kenrokuen Garden Nagamachi Samurai District Prices shown are from the day of filming.
