Offbeat Japan| Half-day tour in Kurashiki
|Half-day tour in Kurashiki.
💫During the National Day holiday, travel to Kansai, Japan, after visiting Osaka, Kyoto, and Kobe, why not go further west to visit Kurashiki in Okayama Prefecture.
🚎Kurashiki is a ten-minute drive from Okayama City. Generally, when traveling to Okayama, half a day or a day is reserved for it.
🌿The Bikan area can't say there are any iconic attractions, but it's quite comfortable to stroll around leisurely.
✨I was amazed by the beautiful water town style of the Bikan area. The atmosphere of the Edo period also left a deep impression. So much so that when I later saw the white-walled buildings with stone bridges and small rivers in the Edo period films, I thought they were filmed in Kurashiki~ I went again at night to see the lighting event and the silhouette play 'Spring Night Years'.
🛶Take a boat tour of the Kurashiki River, and see several newlyweds, which is also a unique sight~

🖼If you like to visit art galleries, the Ohara Museum of Art has a collection of works by many great artists such as Monet, Rodin, Picasso, etc. There are also Kurashiki Toy Museum, Safe Museum, Archaeological Museum, Insect Museum, Japanese Folk Toy Museum, etc.

🛍Walk around and shop, there are many shops where you can find denim clothing and products, because the Kojima area of Kurashiki is the birthplace of Japanese denim~ This is also the birthplace of washi tape, with several stationery stores.
🐱Friends who like kittens and Shugo can go to see the Dog and Cat House, all of which are related products. Nearby there are Shiba Inu Coffee, Cat Coffee and Owl Coffee!

🍨Food recommendation: Okayama is famous for its peaches, don't miss it when you see white peaches!
🍑Kurashiki's dessert shop Kurashiki Peach has four branches, each with a different limited parfait, but both the appearance and taste are good~
It is said that blue is a color that reduces appetite... but there are blue ice cream and buns here, do you want to try it?

🏠Although there are several hotels and inns in front of Kurashiki Station and in the Bikan area, I personally think it is more convenient to choose Okayama for accommodation.
🚎Transportation: Take the train from Okayama Station to Kurashiki Station, and walk to the Bikan area for about ten minutes.
It takes about an hour to take the subway from Fukuyama Station, close to Okayama Station. A large area, a very historical commercial street shop, there are various snacks and snacks for sale. The most worthwhile visit is a small river inside, with willow on both sides of the bank, white walls and black tiled houses, the river is short, and it takes ten minutes to take a boat back and forth. [View] The summer scenery is very good
the place is great and the foods. its somewhat like italian style with a little touch if japan
The beautiful area of Kangshiki City, Okayama Prefecture by the seaside of Seto is an ancient architectural area covering an area of about13.5 hectares between the banks of Kangshiki River and the foot of Hexing Mountain. This is one of the most popular tourist areas in Japan. Chinese tourists prefer to call it the Japanese version of "Zhouzhuang". The prosperous water town of the Edo era in the beautiful area is as in the past, the river passes through the city, the white walls and tiles on both sides of the Straits, the willow Yiyi, full of the beauty of Japanese tradition. Here still retains the stone road alleys of the big board cars, the long and quiet alleys, walking up, listening to their footsteps, very taste...
Very good place, worth a visit, very good very good
Worth a visit. It is an ancient city! There is a street in particular...
It's hard to imagine the cang-fu surrounded by mountains all the way. There is a beautiful area like our water village in the south of the Yangtze River. Bridges, willows and running water are really full of poetry. Many Japanese operas are set here. Although it's not very big, many characteristic shops can enjoy the sunshine leisurely and slowly. In a manpower boat and cherry trees on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, we can imagine the beauty of cherry blossom season.
