A Japanese-style ancient town full of Japanese style - a beautiful day trip to Kurashiki

When traveling to Kansai, if you are tired of the crowded Kyoto and Hanshin, in addition to exploring Wakayama in the south, taking a train to explore the western part of Kansai is also a good choice. Today I will share with you a 🇯🇵 niche attraction in western Kansai——Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter 👉 Before I went there, I learned that Kurashiki Bikan is an ancient Japanese town with a history of nearly 400 years. I thought it was in the same style as Kyoto, but after I went there, I found that the two styles are completely different! 🤣 Kurashiki Meikan features a white-walled warehouse, tiled walls, and willow-lined streets. The whole area is full of old houses of modern big families that have become cultural heritage. The streets formed by these nearly 400-year-old traditional buildings and the retro and modern scenery along the Kurashiki River really fascinated me as a tourist🤩 📍Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter 🚅JR Kurashiki Station 🏠It is recommended to stay in Okayama, the hotel is cost-effective, and there are many things to eat, drink and play. (From JR Okayama Station to JR Kurashiki Station, only 17 minutes) 🤟Kurashiki's specialties are denim and canvas products. The Kurashiki River is full of shops selling denim and canvas, and various cafes converted from old houses. It's not a problem to spend an afternoon strolling around. 🛶 Kurashiki River Cruise Ticket purchase location 📍Kurashikikan Tourist Information CenterKurashikikan Ticket price: Adult 500 Child 250 Opening hours: 9:30-17:00 🏛Ohara Museum of Art (established in 1930, it is Japan's earliest private art museum centered on Western art) Ticket price: 2000
