Inspired by Haruki Murakami's enigmatic character, Aomame, from his novel 1Q84, The Parks of Aomame will run through the city of Okayama. These interconnected parks, both real and imagined, will draw upon Aomame's silent struggles and her complex existence within two parallel worlds.
The Okayama Art Summit 2025 will transform the city into a realm in which reality and imagination blend seamlessly. This ambitious event will reimagine Okayama’s public spaces, forgotten corners and urban parks, creating a map of wonder.

Okayama Korakuen

It is a very old park. The trees inside seem to be very old. When it is hot in summer, the place is filled with the sound of cicadas. There are rice fields and tea gardens. It should be even more beautiful in spring. After going out from the side door and walking across a bridge, Okayama Castle is on the other side of the river.

Okayama Castle is located in Okayama Prefecture. It is also called Kuro Castle because the wall panels of the castle tower are painted black. It is also called Jinku Castle because of the golden roof and the golden animal head tiles on the top of the watchtower. From the Warring States Period to the Meiji Restoration, it was successively owned by the Ukita family, the Kobayakawa family, and the Ikeda family. The castle tower, the Tsukimi Turret, the Nishite Turret, and the Ishiyama Gate, which were built in the Momoyama style, have all been rated as national treasures of Japan. Okayama Castle is a five-story, six-story building and is one of the oldest castles in Japan.
