After realizing this is a hidden samurai city in Japan, I'm wondering what to do in Kanazawa? I'm here, bringing you the most comprehensive guide I can create. In an ancient city, the only thing you can do is learn and experience the most authentic cultural treasures. So, let's go together on this adventure.

This former castle town, once ruled by the powerful Maeda clan for nearly 300 years, preserves Japan's feudal heritage like no other city. Kanazawa offers travelers an intimate glimpse into traditional Japan, where samurai districts remain frozen in time and centuries-old crafts continue to thrive.

The city escaped the devastation of WWII, making it Japan's best-preserved Edo-period city. The Maeda clan transformed Kanazawa into a cultural powerhouse with artisans, merchants, and scholars. Nowadays, people walk the same stone-paved streets that the samurai walked and, at the same time, explore the districts where geisha practice ancient arts.

Imagine walking on clouds: soft and white. The best part? It has a mirror effect—during the rainy season—that transforms you not only into the sky, but also into a seemingly altered reality. Welcome to the Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia.

Stretching across 10,582 square kilometers (4,086 square miles) of the Bolivian Altiplano, Salar de Uyuni stands as the world's largest salt flat and one of South America's most extraordinary natural phenomena.

The Salar de Uyuni, 40,000 years. It formed when the ancient lakes—Minchín and Tauca—dried up, leaving behind a salt crust estimated to contain 10 billion tons of salt. The salt flat reaches depths of 2 to 10 meters (6.5 to 33 feet).

Beneath this white desert lies something even more valuable: approximately 50 to 70% of the world's lithium reserves.

Every cruiser needs to be aware of luggage restrictions, prohibited items, and dress codes. This guide is based on official cruise line policies and expert traveler recommendations.

What to pack for a cruise? Unlike airlines, cruise lines regulate their own luggage directly, rather than through government agencies like the TSA.

Each cruise company establishes its own baggage policies, though most follow similar safety guidelines to prevent fire hazards and maintain security onboard.

Most cruise lines recommend that each passenger limit their luggage to two suitcases, each weighing less than 50 pounds. Confirms cruise industry experts. However, passengers have flexibility as long as they can transport their own bags to and from the ship.
