A Zen Experience Popular with Foreign Visitors

D.T. Suzuki was a philosopher who spread the idea of Zen to America and Europe more than anyone else. The D.T. Suzuki Museum in Kanazawa brings Suzuki's world vision to all its guests. Forget about the noisy world around us and experience the quiet spaces the museum has to offer. Relax and reflect on things. It's the kind of space where you'll lose track of time. How you spend that time is up to you.
