Nomi
Among the places of Ishikawa Prefecture, Hakusan stands out for its close ties to Mount Hakusan worship and the Tedori River valley. Hakusan extends from the Sea of Japan coast into southern Ishikawa’s mountainous interior, with the Tedori River forming a broad corridor through the city. In the Tsurugi area, National Route 157 crosses the river on Yamakami-go Bridge, following a route between the Kanazawa Plain and Hakusan’s mountain settlements. Wooded hillsides and cultivated river flats give this stretch a distinctly rural character. Hakusan is also closely associated with the centuries-old religious tradition of Mount Hakusan; Shirayama Hime Jinja is a major shrine dedicated to its deity.

Nomi sits on the Tedori River alluvial fan in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, where lowland fields meet the foothills of Mount Hakusan. The city occupies part of the Hokuriku plain between Kanazawa and Komatsu, within a region long shaped by routes along the Sea of Japan side of the country. Kutani ware is central to Nomi’s identity: the Kutaniyaki Art Museum presents the vividly decorated porcelain associated with Ishikawa, while workshops and shops keep the craft visible in daily life. Nomi was created in 2005 through the merger of Neagari, Terai and Tatsunokuchi, bringing together residential districts, farmland and the Tatsunokuchi hot-spring area.

Kanazawa developed under the Maeda clan and remains known for Kenrokuen Garden, one of Japan’s Three Great Gardens, as well as preserved samurai and teahouse districts. The prefecture’s craft traditions include Wajima lacquerware from Noto and Kutani porcelain. Seasonal seafood, notably crab in winter, is central to local cooking.
