    Okayama Pref. Akaiwashi Tonodani 170-1
    A highly unique English garden created on the grounds of a closed elementary school located a 20-minute drive from the Sanyo Interchange on the Sanyo Expressway. The garden was designed by English gardener and researcher Kay Yamada. The old school building is used as a multipurpose hall for parties and events, and as a greenhouse where rare plants are kept. The garden holds ceramics classes, aromatherapy experiences, flower arranging classes, and more. There's also a cafe where you can enjoy a break while taking in a view of the garden's seasonal flowers and plants.

    花がメインです。 イベントもやれるようです。 無料開放してました。 バラの花等が好きな人には良いと思います。

    Okayama Setouchi-shi Ushimadocho Ushimado
    "Located about a 15-minute drive from the Oku Interchange on the Okayama Blue Line. Ushimado, which has long prospered as a port town where people would wait for the right wind or tide, has a townscape that retains a retro appearance from the Edo period to the 1950s. Developed along the street running parallel to the Karakoto no Seto Strait it's home to a number of traditional buildings and historical landmarks including Honrenji Temple and the remains of the tea house that welcomed the Korean delegation to Japan during the Edo period, white walled storehouses, streetscape with latticed doors, the Former Bank of China Building, and the site of Torodo Lantern Tower. This is also where the film ""Kanzo Sensei (Dr. Akagi)"" was shot and many of the buildings used in the film and commemorative plaques still remain."

    Okayama Pref. Akaiwashi Nakaseijitsu 2978-3

    吉井竜天オートキャンプ場がすぐ隣に有り、キャンプをした時に、こちらのお風呂を利用しました。 100円で使えて、とても助かりました。 公園内にも小規模なキャンプ場が有り、公園も有ります。

Okayama Areas

around-area-map

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.
