Located in the Kotō area of Tsubata near the Kahoku Lagoon, this picturesque avenue features approximately 270 metasequoia trees planted along a narrow farm road. Spanning about 300 meters, the trees create a striking vertical landscape amidst the wide-open reclamation fields. While smaller than more famous avenues in Japan, it offers a rare sense of solitude and tranquility, making it an ideal spot for 'me-time' or creative photography. Visitors can enjoy the changing colors of these 'living fossils' throughout the seasons, with the golden hues of autumn and the potential for snow-covered branches in winter providing particularly beautiful backdrops.

Kahokugata Metasequoia Avenue is highly regarded for its peaceful and scenic atmosphere, serving as a quiet alternative to more crowded nature spots. Reviewers frequently mention the beauty of the 270 trees, especially when illuminated by sunlight or during the autumn color transition. The location is described as being in the middle of open spaces, which enhances the visual impact of the tree-lined road. Many visitors appreciate the lack of traffic, allowing for uninterrupted photography and a sense of solitude. While the scale is noted as smaller than the famous Makino avenue, its proximity to Kanazawa makes it a convenient and worthwhile detour. Overall, it is seen as a hidden gem for those seeking tranquility and natural beauty.
