Kanazawa is one of Japan’s best-preserved castle towns and a major tourist destination for millions. “Discover Kanazawa’s History” is an app for self-guided tours that allows you to learn about aspects of Kanazawa’s major attractions that you might not be aware of when visiting them on your own. It will show you old photographs and artwork of the city, telling you about the historic back streets where time seems almost to stand still, point out the city’s oldest building, tell you how the city began, the truth about the “samurai district” and the “ninja temple,” and lots of other fascinating discoveries.
