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 ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต niche attraction in western Kansaiโ€”โ€”Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter ๐Ÿ‘‰ 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! ๐Ÿคฃ 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 tourist๐Ÿคฉ ๐Ÿ“Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter ๐Ÿš…JR Kurashiki Station ๐Ÿ 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) ๐ŸคŸKurashiki'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. ๐Ÿ›ถ Kurashiki River Cruise Ticket purchase location ๐Ÿ“Kurashikikan Tourist Information CenterKurashikikan Ticket price: Adult 500 Child 250 Opening hours: 9:30-17:00 ๐Ÿ›Ohara Museum of Art (established in 1930, it is Japan's earliest private art museum centered on Western art) Ticket price: 2000
