Frommer's Review
The Ishikawa Prefectural Art Museum (Ishikawa Kenritsu Bijutsukan; www.ishibi.pref.ishikawa.jp) is closed for renovation until the end of 2008. Ask the tourist office for an update on its reopening, because you won't want to miss its scrolls, paintings, Kutani ware, and changing items that may range from samurai costumes belonging to the Maeda family to kimono, as well as contemporary oil paintings and decorative art by artists who were born in Ishikawa, lived here, or had some connection to the prefecture, many of them National Living Treasures.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
