On January 1st, there were huge earthquakes in Ishikawa Prefecture.

We are safe.
Many damages have been found to the facilities and equipment of Ryokan Yamamuro.

The Japanese style bath of our ryokan is on the basement floor.
We would not open it until conditions calm down and the safety has been ensured.
Two shower rooms on the ground floor are available.

There are aftershocks continuously in Kanazawa.
Checking the Kanazawa City Tourism Association website would be recommended to visitors.
