About this spot
"Hakuichi Main Store Hakutakumi-kan" lets you fully experience the appeal of "gold leaf," a traditional culture of Kanazawa. In addition to learning the history and production process of gold leaf, you can watch craftsmen's skills up close and try the "gold leaf application experience" of making your own original craft, a spot that captivates both adults and children. Particularly famous is the "Gold Leaf Shine Soft Serve Ice Cream," topped with a lavish sheet of gold leaf. Its overwhelming impact is hugely popular on social media as a memory of sightseeing in Kanazawa. The building also has the "Gold Leaf Room," which uses more than 10,000 sheets of gold leaf, and exhibits using projection mapping, making it a rich photo spot. The souvenir lineup is also rich, including cosmetics and sweets containing gold leaf and refined crafts. Being an all-weather indoor facility, you can spend time leisurely with family and friends without worrying about the weather. Come feel Kanazawa's shining culture firsthand.
