Spring - For Tourism ISHIKAWA, JAPAN
Visit for cherry blossoms and mild weather
Spring begins with snow on the ground in many areas of Ishikawa, but most of it melts by the end of March. Nature then quickly regains its color, and in April, cherry blossoms bloom. For many visitors, this is the highlight of the season. Ishikawa has many places to admire the cherry blossoms; Kenrokuen Garden in Kanazawa is one of the most popular.
Spring also sees some important festivals. Among the biggest is the Seihakusai Festival, in which teams of worshipers heave massive floats through the port town of Nanao. The Otabi Festival involves kabuki theater and parades of floats in Komatsu.

2 WEEKS IN JAPAN / MAY VLOG / MIKUNI FESTIVAL / FUKUI PREFECTURE / SOUTH AFRICAN ABROAD / IN JAPAN
Koketso also known as Angello, I am a South African living in Japan and I am here on the JET Program.
Being placed in a small seaside town in rural Japan you would think it has nothing to offer (judging by the standards that I know- rural South Africa, emakhaya) but the town of Mikuni has a lot to engage in. As a South African moving abroad I had my preconceived ideas about what this rural town would be. After many Instagram hashtags, blogs, and barely any vlogs about Fukui I was quickly swayed.
I went to the Mikuni festival. This year the Mikuni festival was on everyone's lips when I arrived on the JET Program just a little over a month ago. And boy, did it deliver. It is one of the biggest cultural and historical festivals in the area, dare I say Hokuriku region in Japan.
Mikuni festival is both a cultural and historical festival in Fukui Prefecture that has been around for over 300years. It is essentially to connect the different Shinto shrines in the Mikuni area. Shinto is the 'native religion of Japan'. And not Buddhism as others would assume a. The festival is A celebration of the Mikuni main shrine.
Past that, there is a flower park in the next town and it too is a hit during the summer. When I went there was only the roses that have blossomed but Yuri-no-Sato park is beautiful in the summer and at night, apparently. Japan has a lot of festivals, tourist areas and activities centered around flowers. You may even come across a flower festival.
I also went to one of the major tourist attractions in Fukui prefecture which is the dinosaur museum in Katsuyama. It is one of the leading dinosaur museums and I can confirm that part of it is cause of the information contained, the actual fossils, bones, the inclusivity options, the guide and world class architecture building you cannot miss from miles away. The interesting architecture building is a glistening dinosaur egg in the footing of the mountain range that surrounds Katsuyama, a beautiful contrast to the forest around.
