Saigawa River
A place of rest and relaxation that enriches the city center
The Saigawa River flows gently along the west side of Kanazawa Castle. Both banks of the river are lined with promenades, providing a place of relaxation for many citizens and tourists. The riverbanks are covered with green grass and are a good place for strolling and jogging. In spring, the rows of cherry trees along the riverside are crowded with people enjoying cherry blossom viewing when they are in full bloom. The river is known as the river that Saisei Muroo loved so much that he wrote in one of his poems, “Beautiful river flows by. The Asano River is called the “Otoko River” in contrast to the Onna River, which is called the “Onna River.
