武家屋敷跡野村家
11代にわたり加賀藩の重臣として主に奉行職を務めた名家、野村家の屋敷跡だ。 明治時代に入って、野村家の武家屋敷は門と土塀以外は失われてしまい、現在の建物はある豪商が建てた屋敷の一部が移築されたものとなっている。 ※ちなみに、野村家の禄高は1,200石で、現在価値に直すと約2,400万円。 加賀藩という大組織の中では執行役員か部長くらいのランクだったと思われる。 この武家屋敷跡野村家は、庭園が素晴らしいことで有名。 曲水、樹齢400年以上の古木、名石・奇岩、灯篭などがバランスよく美しく配置されている。 「ミシュラン・グリーンガイド・ジャポン」の格付けで2つ星に、米国の庭園専門誌「ジャーナル・オブ・ガーデニング」の日本庭園ランキングで3位に選ばれているほどだ。 豪華で格式高い建物と情緒あふれる庭園も見事に調和している。 なお、建物内部も中々見応えがある。 山水画をほどこした襖、総檜造りの格天井、ギヤマン入りの障子戸などは、文化財としての価値も高い。 また、資料室には武具(刀剣・甲冑や、古美術品、書状などが展示されている。 なお、2階の茶室「不莫庵」では、美しい庭を見ながら抹茶と干菓子のセットを楽しむことが出来て、素晴らしい。 人気スポットのため、ゆっくりと見たければ午前中の早い時間が空いていてお勧めだ。

川越大師 喜多院
喜多院は、慈覚大師(794〜864年)という非常に位の高い僧によって830年に創建された天台宗の名刹。 歴史的に価値のある建物や美術・工芸品を数多く有し、また素晴らしい庭があることで有名だ。 桜と紅葉の名所でもある。 少し喜多院の歴史について語る。 創建から長らくは無量寿寺という名前の寺であったが、1612年に高僧の天海僧正が住職となった際、喜多院と寺名が改められた。 天海僧正は、徳川幕府の創始者で絶大な権力を持っていた徳川家康(1543〜1616年)から大きな信任を得ていたため、喜多院は徳川幕府にとって特別な存在となった。 1638年に起きた川越エリアの大火で喜多院の建物はほぼ全てが焼失してしまうが、当時の将軍であった徳川家光(1604〜1651年)はすぐさま喜多院の再建にとりかかり、そして江戸城にあった別殿を移築して、喜多院の客殿と書院等としたほどの厚遇を見せた。 なお、この客殿と書院は、江戸城にあった際は、それぞれ「徳川家光の誕生の間」であり、女性の権力者として日本人の間では有名な「春日局の化粧の間」であった。 ※1657年に江戸城が焼失したため、この喜多院の客殿と書院が、創建時の江戸城の唯一の遺構となっている。 境内にある五百羅漢は、1782年から約50年間にわたり建立されたもので、表情の豊かな石の仏像が538体も鎮座している。
