Over 400 years, Ishikawa Prefecture was spared from the ravages of war. As a result, Ishikawa has retained many old aspects of the samurai culture which flourish still even today. One of those is the Nagamachi Samurai Residence District, which is a neighborhood where Maeda Clan retainers used to live. In addition to that, you can see full-body armor and weaponry and many other samurai artifacts belonging to the head retainer of the Maeda Clan at the Honda Zohinkan Museum.
