If you’re after day-trip inspiration, we’ve got some suggestions. Situated 18 miles away, Nomi is worth getting in the car for. See the best sights starting with Ishikawa Zoo, Shirayama Hime Shrine and Komatsu City Museum. Locals are also likely to point you toward Fukui, 25 miles away. If you only see one thing here, make sure it’s Ichijodani Asakura Clans Ruins. (But we’re also huge fans of Fukui Prefectural Stadium and Angel Land Fukui.)
