【岡山】一度は歩きたい後楽園・岡山城・倉敷｜美しい日本を巡る2日間
This is a trip to enjoy delicious gourmet food and experience nature and history. I hope you will enjoy our realistic journey with us. We are going to Okayama station by bus We went to Okayama and Kagawa for four days and three nights. First, we came to Okayama Prefecture, the birthplace of the Momotaro legend. There is a cute bronze statue of Momotaro in front of the station. It’s amazing that these men beat the demons. I’m hungry, so I’m going to eat at the station building. Barazushi, a specialty of Okayama. From Okayama Station, go to Korakuen Garden. You can also take a bus, but it is free if you walk. I’d love some fruit juice. Peach Boy is cute! If we keep going straight down this road, we’ll get there, right? Yes. We ended up buying both an admission ticket to Korakuen Garden and a ticket for the Korakuen/ Okayama Castle set. Note that cashless payments are non-refundable. As soon as you enter the park, you can enjoy a collaborative view with Okayama Castle. This day was before Children’s Day. I thought this place was worth more than 500yen. This is a spacious feudal lord’s garden created in the Edo period. This is one of the three most famous gardens in Japan, where visitors can enjoy the harmony of seasonal nature and historical buildings. It is worth more than 500 yen (admission fee). There was a real carp. There’s also a turtle. Climbing a small mountain overlooks an open garden. Cherry blossoms in spring, lotus and fresh greenery in summer, autumn leaves in fall, camellias and snowy scenery in winter No matter which landscape you visit, the four seasons are full of charm. In the park, you can see red-crowned cranes. They came this way. They came this way. They came this way(for the third time). Every year on New Year’s Day, red-crowned cranes walk through the park. I may have been the first person to hear a red-crowned crane. This squeak sounds like a Pokemon. Is this what Pokemon sounds like? If I buy it now, will it get in the way? The white peach soft serve ice cream is too good. During this trip, I saw many large carp streamers. Okayama Prefecture ranks first in the production of carp streamers. In the center of the park, almost in the middle of the park, there is a building with a waterway through it. How about we have a meeting here? If we get into a fight here, they can’t come over here, right? The view from the quiet and cool building naturally soothes the soul. We exit from the south exit and head for Okayama Castle. We saw only the central area of Korakuen and it took us about an hour, including an ice cream break. The park is so large that it would take two hours to see every corner. Tsukimibashi Bridge spans the Asahikawa River and connects Korakuen Garden and Okayama Castle. This angle of Okayama Castle is also very nice. You can see Okayama Castle and peaches flowing down the river. We climb a slightly longer flight of stairs. Because of this black-lacquered appearance, it is also known as “Ujyo. Okayama Castle was rebuilt in 1966 and is now a museum. The museum has seven floors of historical exhibits that can be enjoyed even by those not familiar with history. We actually held guns and swords. You may be able to experience dressing up as a princess or lord, although we did not find it. I highly recommend visiting Okayama Castle and Korakuen Garden as a set! I am glad there is also a souvenir shop. I was also interested in the cafe, but it was already closed. I dropped my hat, but someone picked it up. I wanted to take my time to see Korakuen, but I didn’t have time, so I will just pass through. Looks like a chocolate ball. It’s like an ice cream cone. It’s like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. We take the train to our hotel. Decorated with ornaments and art, this is a lovely space. Hotels operated by Sun Frontier are located throughout Japan. I stayed in several hotels and all were good, and I hope to conquer them someday. There is a large bathroom (with washing machine and dryer) The meal voucher is for Yakiniku Hiro, just down the street from the hotel; we received 4,000 yen per person per night plus one soft drink. I am glad that there is a convenience store and a yakiniku restaurant right in front of the hotel. We are staying 2 nights this time, so we can use 16,000 yen for 2 people and 4 drinks. Pineapple ice cream is packed inside. We end our day with a beer purchased at Okayama Castle. Breakfast is buffet style. Here, you will always find a menu unique to Okayama. Today, after a walk around the hotel and a little exercise, we will head to Kurashiki. We walked from Kurashiki City Station to the Bikan Historical Quarter. Walk for about 12 minutes. The Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter retains its historical townscape Here you will find historical buildings, cultural facilities, cafes and stores. Machiya Cafe Miyake Shoten It is a townhouse cafe in a renovated old private house. Curry using peaches and seasonal parfaits are popular. This curry is made with peaches and has a fruity flavor. It was a weekday between consecutive holidays, and I was disappointed that I could not order the weekday lunch menu. The popularity of this restaurant is understandable, as it offers food unique to Okayama in an old private house style. This is a tourist complex built by preserving and reusing as much as possible of the exterior and standing timbers of the factory where the Kurashiki spinning mill originated in the Meiji era. There is a hotel here, and from the pictures, it was very nice. We will have a set of Kibidango Chofu. We take a short break to take in the view outside Hot? Chofu was also sold in front of the store and was marked hot! The chofu I had in the restaurant was good, but it wasn’t warm, so I’m curious about the heat as well. The chofu I had in the restaurant was good, but it wasn’t warm, so I’m curious about the heat as well. Trees and swaying boats on the river. The shimmering of the water seems to relax even your mind. This is a special moment, like a quiet everyday life. Kurashiki is known as the birthplace of domestic jeans. We decided against the denim buns and denim soft serve. It seems to be popular and I am anxious to taste it. In addition to jeans, the road is full of denim, including bags and accessories. Swans spend their time calmly. Sometimes it is intense. It is used as a place for exchange between tourists and citizens. On this day, poetry was on display in the multipurpose hall. Kurashiki is said to be the birthplace of masking tape, and there are many specialty stores I couldn’t resist buying a cute little Miffy. We sit and eat along the river. Now that the weather is clearing up, I’m going to visit the Achi Shrine, which I’ve been curious about. “Hey, hey, where’s the bait?” We also met chickens and they came close to us. Achi Shrine is located at the top of a small mountain that watches over the Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter. This place has a history of 1,700 years. Standing in the precincts of the temple, the buzzing of the city becomes distant. This is a place where prayer and the seasons quietly overlap. Akebono wisteria blooming in the precincts is about 300 years old. It is a natural monument that has quietly watched over the spring in Kurashiki. I would recommend Achi Shrine. There are still places I haven’t seen yet, so I will stroll again. I was very worried about this denim bag. We’ve always been extravagant. It was past 6:00 p.m. when I left the restaurant. The shutters of the surrounding stores are closed. The city of Kurashiki seems to end its day a little early. I had an extra yakiniku ticket that I received, so I enjoyed it well into the evening meal. We are going to Takamatsu and Shodoshima tomorrow.
