explanation: Occupying northern Ishikawa prefecture and projecting into Sea of Japan toward the north, Noto peninsula is composed essentially with low hills. Due to its difficult access, the ancient traditions are preserved and Noto peninsula has become recently one of the popular destinations to discover an old Japan, along with many host springs and beautiful coastal lines. The main towns are Wajima and Nanao. The coastal part belongs to Noto peninsula national selection park.
