ANAクラウンプラザホテル金沢に、2泊宿泊。
金沢駅にとても近く、バスターミナル 側なので、観光へ出かけるのにも便利です。
Stay 2 nights in ANA Crowne Plaza Hotel Kanazawa.
It is very convenient for going out for sightseeing because it is very close to Kanazawa station and bus terminal side.

まあ、"世界で最も美しい駅" というランキングは、複数の雑誌 (ウェブ版含む）でとりあげているので、その信憑製や基準は私には定かではありませんが、海外の雑誌にランキングされることは知名度がある証拠かな？と思います。
英国から本帰国後、私は金沢を2度訪ねているのですが、両方ともせわしなく、写真撮影をする間がありませんでした。
3度目の今回、ようやく自分で撮影できました。

| 鼓門の柱は、金沢の伝統芸能の能楽、加賀宝生 (カガホウショウ) の鼓をイメージしていると言われています。 すごい発想で、なおかつ、これが実現できることも素晴らしい！ It is said that the pillars of the Tsuzumi Gate are imagining the Tsuzumi : drums of 'Kaga Hosho' which is the traditional performance art, Nōgaku, of Kanazawa. It was an amazing idea, as well as it could be made, this is also wonderful! 
"鼓門"下から、"もてなしドーム"を見あげる
もてなしドームのコンセプトは
『雨風をしのぎ、金沢を訪れた人々にそっと傘を差し出す金沢人の優しさ、
もてなしの心を表す』
というもので、明るく雨にも濡れない広場を作ったのだそうです。
なるほど〜。
金沢の人は、確かに優しいと感じます。
Looking
up at "Motenashi Dome" from under the "Tsuzumi Gate"
The
concept of the "Mmotenashi Dome is that
"The
kindness of the Kanazawa people who gently hold out umbrellas
for
visitors to Kanazawa, which represents the heart of hospitality.
"
It
seems to have made a square that is bright and not wet even by rain.
Indee~d.
I
feel people in Kanazawa certainly are kind.

When speaking
of Kanazawa Station, nowadays people think of Glass
Dome : "Motenashi Dome and
Wooden
Gate : 'Tsuzumi Gate'.
The
designs were by Ryuzo Shirae (1952 - ), and they were completed in
2005.
It
was selected as one of "The World's Most Beautiful Stations"
of Travel · Leisure (Web version) of America in 2011.
Well, although the ranking "The World's Most Beautiful Stations" is
cited in multiple magazines (including web version), its credibility
and standards are not certain to me, but being ranked in overseas
magazines is the evidence the Station is well known
I think.
I think.
In
2015, Hokuriku
Shinkansen opened between Takasaki
Station and Kanazawa Station, after then I think that I frequently
see "Tsuzumi Gate" in images.
After
returning to Japan from the UK, I have visited Kanazawa twice, however, in both visits I did not have any time for photographing "Tsuzumi
Gate".
I
finally photographed in this third visit.

The Gate : 13,7 m tall and 24 m roof wide.

改札で彼女を待っている時、美しい髪をさらさらさせながら、階段を降りてくる女性が目につきました。
それが彼女でした!
After
photographing on this day, I went to meet a friend, H chan at the
Station, who came from Kansai region, using the limited
express "Thunderbird".
While I was waiting for her by the ticket gate, a woman was coming down
the stairs, as she stepped down, her beautiful hair waved and caught my eye.
She was H chan!
3) ランチ / Lunch
Sちゃんが、"卯辰
(ウタツ)"をリサーチし、予約もしてくれました。
やっぱり、現地の人が探して、予約してくれるのがベストですね。
Sちゃん、ありがとう！
"卯辰"
このレストランは卯辰山 (ウタツヤマ) にあります。

We
also met S chan at Kanazawa Station and the three of us went to a
restaurant,
"Utatsu": "卯辰".

S chan researched "Utatsu"and made a reservation.
After
all it is best that locals look for places and make a reservation.
Thank you, S chan!

私達は3人は、就職先の神戸のF社で出会いました。
3人ともF社をやめて、ずいぶん経ちます。
この部屋で、Sちゃん、Hちゃんの写真を何枚かとりました。
彼女らがほとんど変わっていず、綺麗でかわいいままで、驚きます。
3人でこうして会うのは何年ぶりでしょう？？？
この日、金沢で会えたことを本当に嬉しく思います。

美味しくいただきました。
Our
Lunch Set : "Kagagozen"
I
enjoyed it.
ご飯、汁物も付いています。
It had also a bowl of rice and soup. |
The three of us had first met in our place of employment, the F company in Kobe, Hyōgo Prefecture.
All three of us stopped working for F company a long long time ago~.
I took a few photographs of S chan and H chan in our room.
They have changed very little, however, they are still beautiful and cute, I was happily surprised.
How long has it been since the three of us were together like this ? ? ?
I am really pleased to have met them in Kanazawa that day.
デザート
雛祭りのシーズンでした！この日はその当日！
一人、ひとつづつで、セットではありませんよ。
Dessert
It was a season of Hinamatsuri which is a special day in Japan, celebrated each year on 3rd of March, platforms covered with a red carpet-material are used to display a set of ornamental dolls representing the Emperor, Empress and others.
That day was 3rd of March!
Each dish is for one person, they are not a set.

 "卯辰"のオリジナルカップ / Original Cup of "Utatsu" |
女性のお客さんが多いように推測します。
基本、お部屋が個室なので、実際に多くの女性を見たわけではありませんが、お店の雰囲気、お料理の盛り付け、量、味、器のセンスなどから、そう感じました。
大会社の受付嬢とやりとりしたような気持ちにさせるランチでした。
I guess that there are many women customers.
Basically, since the room is private, I did not actually see many women, but I felt it from the atmosphere, food presentation, the size of the dishes, the taste, the sense of the tableware and so on.
The lunch made me feel as if I had just had a conversation with a receptionist of a big company.
4) 宇多須神社 / Utasu Shrine
"卯辰"をでて、卯辰山をふらふらとを降りて行きました。
目指すは、人気の観光地、ひがし茶屋街です。
加賀藩の初代藩主、前田利家 (マエダトシイエ / 1539 - 1599) が亡くなったのちに、前田利家を卯辰八幡宮(ウタツハチマングウ)と称して祀り、代々藩主の祈祷所になっていました。
1873年、 現在の尾山神社 (オヤマジンジャ)が創建され、主祭神: 前田利家は、そちらへうつされました。
卯辰八幡宮は、1878年に高皇産霊神(タカミムスビ)を祀り、宇多須神社になりました。
高皇産霊神には申し訳ありませんが、現在、宇多須神社は元、前田利家を祀っていたということが 'ウリ'になっているようです。

宇多須神社
通称、毘沙門(ビシャモン)さん。
Utasu
Shrine
The
nickname is 'Bishamon san'.

We left "Utatsu" and we walked down Mount Utatsu.
Our aim was a popular tourist site, Higashi Chaya District.
Before reaching there, was the "Utasu Shrine".
Utasu Shrine was founded in 718 as Tamonten Shrine : Bishyamonten (Vaiśravaṇa) Shrine.
After Maeda Toshiie (1539 - 1599), who was the first Lord of Kaga Domain passed away, the Shrine was used to deify him.
Then the name was changed to Utatsu Hachiman-gu Shrine and the Shrine became a place of prayer for generations of the Maeda Family.
In 1873, Oyama Shrine was established and the enshrined deity :
Maeda Toshiie was moved from Utatsu Hachiman-gu Shrine to Oyama Shrine.
In 1878, Utatsu Hachiman-gu Shrine was used to deify Takamusumi God and then it became "Utasu Shrine".

I am sorry for the Takamusumi God, because now it seems that the "Utasu Shrine" is more well known for the former enshrined deity, Maeda Toshiie.
