Came late a night. Around 7pm. Much less people around at this time if you plan on taking some photographs. Unique and interesting wooden structure blends with the metal structure of Kanazawa station.

The Tsuzumi-mon Gate, at Kanazawa Station in Japan, is inspired by a traditional Japanese hand drum (tsuzumi), blends modern architecture with cultural heritage. Made with wooden pillars which evokes the elegance of ancient Japan. Very beautiful!

Perfectly organized and cleaned central station. All trains departed punctually. And the gate was amazingly pretty!

An unexpected well crafted modern interpretation of the Tori Gate. Using real wood in large timber format, the Tori Gate is abstracted into subcomponents that act as brush strokes in an impressionist painting in order to evoke the classic gate. The remaining roof is aluminum or stainless steel space frame. This makes for a fabulous juxtaposition of old and new.

Came out of Kanazawa Station and saw this extremely huge but yet beautiful structure. Looks intimidating with lots of metals being twisted, bound and formed together. A technological or artistic project??? But however, when photographed with the pool at the foreground, the whole scene looked phenomenal. An excellent artwork! A masterpiece!!
