The traditional townscape of whitewashed buildings has been well preserved, so visitors can indulge in a typical Japanese atmosphere of olden days.
Recently more old buildings have been refurbished into cafés, restaurants and craft shops. Visitors can spend a whole day, enjoying tasty sweets and food and strolling around the area in denim kimono. Cherry blossoms in spring and colorful maple leaves in autumn are also big seasonal deals.
Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter
The charming town has a perfect harmony of historical and modern factors.
