Nishi Chaya District is one of the three traditional teahouses and geisha districts in Kanazawa. This historic district offers a quieter and more authentic experience compared to other teahouse districts in the city. Don't miss the Nishi Chaya Shiryokan Museum, housed in a former teahouse, which showcases the rich cultural heritage of the area. With its quaint cafes and souvenir shops, Nishi Chaya is a hidden gem waiting to be explored by those seeking a glimpse into Kanazawa's past.
