Both
depends on your taste.
Most important difference is their locations. Kanazawa is near the sea.Takayma is in the mountains.

Yes.You can think you are lucky because you can see how to renovate a 400 years old huge building.

I think one castle is satisfactory too.But,the keep of Osaka Castle was rebuilt in 1928.Concrete.
On the other hand,Himeji is basically original.Woods and plaster.
That's why Himeji is world heritage site.So I recommend Himeji.
I might be a big castle fan.....
