    Okayama Pref. Bizenshi Imbe 670
    Ichiyougama Kiln, a source kiln for Bizen pottery, is located along the Sanyo Road in Inbe in the city of Bizen. Visitors can view the process of making Bizen pottery in the onsite studios: creating the clay, forming on the potter’s wheel, and during the semi-annual firing of the kiln in spring and autumn, they can see pottery being put into and removed from the kiln.

    伊部駅から徒歩5分ほど。伊部駅から備前焼のお店が並ぶ通りに入ったところなあります。大きめの店舗で、普段づかいできる器がたくさん販売されています。このあたりにはたくさんお店が並んでいますので、見比べながら好みのものを購入できます。

Okayama Areas

Overshadowed by Hiroshima to the west and the Kansai region to the east, Okayama is an easy spot to miss but a nature-rich gem where the Seto Inland Sea laps at its toes and peach and grape farms complete its interior. One of Japan’s Three Great Gardens, Koraku-en in Okayama city is well worth a visit before progressing to Kurashiki, where preserved wooden Edo buildings line the picturesque canal.
