The building was then relocated to where it's currently located in 1930 as a Japanese style inn and restaurant "Kanazawa-en" which had been loved by many people including renowned poets and writers such as Akiko Yosano and Kyoshi Takahama until they closed its door in February 2016.The building is now reborn as a Japnaese style accommodation (a.k.a. Ryokan) which welcomes anyone who loves the beauty of Japan's good old days. Our hope is to make KITAYA a place where Japanese culture and other foreign cultures meet as well as the traditional experience of staying and dining in a Ryokan.
