This is Michi-no-Eki located at Nanao Port, the largest fishing port in Noto.
It is said to have been built on the model of the Fisherman’s Wharf in Monterey, California, the United States, with which Nanao City has a sister city relationship.

On a sunny day, the open deck is a great place to relax and enjoy the view of the sea.
