Thank you very much for visiting Kanazawa Machiya Aburaya's website.
I moved to Ishikawa Prefecture in November 2010 and now I live in Kanazawa city with a Japanese wife and daughter.
Kanazawa has the splendor of Japanese good old tradition, culture and humanity.
I have been managing properties like Aburaya since 2014. I love taking care of travelers, and taking care or the houses as well.
Because I am from the United States, I can tell you about the wonderfulness of Japan that Japanese people might notice.
We are familiar with the sightseeing spots and restaurant of Kanazawa & Noto, so please do not hesitate to ask.
I am looking forward to the encounter with everyone who will be coming to Kanazawa, and your stay at Aburaya.
Traditional culture of Kanazawa
The traditional culture of Kanazawa was carefully nurtured during the clan government era, and the modernity was passed on glamor and grace.
In Kanazawa, cultures that can not be seen in other prefectures are fostered, and you can feel unique glamor. Guests can also enjoy their unique culture in "Kanazawa Machiya Aruba".
We are waiting for the guest who wants to experience different from the Western hotel.
Wall of "Ultramarine"
In Kanazawa, there is a tradition of using ultramarine on the wall of the house, using a vivid, flashy ultramarine color rather than a pale ultramarine color.
It is said that the roots of this wallpaper is the Seisonkaku for wife was built in 1863 by the 13th generation Kaga lord, Maeda Nariyasu.
This ultramarine room, it was considered to be a seat for high social status. At the Meiji period, people was rich in Kanazawa began to use it, and eventually it became used in the habitation room for guests even in the residence of the general public.
There are various opinions, but it seems that it was used in Kanazawa where the snow falls in winter, the gray sky covers, and the inside of the house wants to make it a gorgeous atmosphere.
This ultramarine color is also incorporated into the green car of the Hokuriku Shinkansen.
Wall of "Vermilion"
Just like the ultramarine wall, the vermilion wall is also a unique culture of Kanazawa.
It seems that we used vermillion which is warm color in snow deep Kanazawa, in order to soften the coldness of winter visually too.
The vermillion wall with glossy feeling went spread from the Maeda family of lords to a samurai residence, then to a restaurant, a town house, a Ochaya.
Even now, in the restaurants and Ochaya in Ishikawa Prefecture, vermillion walls are also used and you can experience the fantastic atmosphere of the time.
You can also enjoy this unique culture of Kanazawa at Kanazawa Machiya Aburaya.
