D.T. Suzuki (1870-1966) is a prominent Buddhist philosopher born in Kanazawa.
D.T. Suzuki Museum which opened in 2011 is a place for visitors deepen their understanding of D.T. Suzuki.
It is also a place for self-reflection.
Even it is in a crowded city center, the outside and inside of the building is very calm.
It is popular for Pongyi’s guests and they said “I could take a lot of time to face myself.”
The building designed by Yoshio Taniguchi is also very famous.
