2025 Okayama Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 If you are tired of Osaka and Kyoto, you can take the Shinkansen to Okayama for a day trip! As soon as you get off at Okayama Station, you’ll see a bronze statue of Momotaro. This must be Momotaro’s hometown! You can walk slowly to Okayama Castle or take the tram. It is recommended that you go up to Okayama Castle to see the scenery of Okayama city and Okayama Korakuen from a distance. If it is at night, you can also see the Okayama Castle lit up. After finishing your visit to Okayama Castle, you can also take a tour of the nearby Korakuen Garden, where you will find classic Japanese garden landscapes. It is well worth taking the time to walk around!

Okayama is a charming and culturally rich city. The people here are warm and honest, the city's pace is slow and leisurely, and the rainfall is the lowest in the country, earning it the nickname "Sunny Kingdom"! Peaches and grapes are its specialties. 🔷🔷🔷My one-day Okayama tour guide: 🚗Transportation: There are direct flights from Shanghai to Okayama, or you can take the Shinkansen from Osaka to Okayama Station (40 minutes). 🏨Accommodation: VIA INN Okayama - JR West Group, 2 minutes from Okayama Station. 🗺️My one-day Okayama itinerary: ⏰Morning - Ujo Park - Okayama Castle (9:00-17:30) 🕐Afternoon - Okayama Korakuen (8:00-18:00) 🔔🔔Take the city tram, the two attractions are 5 minutes apart. You can buy a Okayama Castle + Korakuen set ticket for 720 yen. 💎Attraction features: 📍Ujo Park: Named after Okayama Castle, Ujo Park is not only a place to visit Okayama Castle, but also to see the Shoin, and experience traditional pottery at the Bizen-yaki workshop. 📍Okayama Castle: One of the "100 Famous Castles of Japan," known for its unique uneven pentagonal design and three-story six-tiered main tower. Unlike ordinary castles, this one is entirely black, hence the nickname "Black Castle." The castle showcases the history and culture of Okayama. You can slowly browse through each floor! (🕢9:00-17:30) 📍Okayama Korakuen: One of the "Big 3" famous gardens in Japan, its beauty changes with the seasons as different flowers are planted. It has also been awarded three stars in the Michelin Green Guide, and is a masterpiece of Japanese gardens. Personally, I think it is more beautiful and worth a visit than Ritsurin Garden. (🕐7:30-18:00) 📌Tips: 1️⃣There are cafes in Okayama Castle and Korakuen where you can rest and have a drink, but there is no main course. I recommend Isshoan, a Michelin one-star ramen restaurant, which is a 10-minute drive from the attractions. 2️⃣Be sure to buy a set ticket for Okayama Castle and Korakuen, which is more affordable! It takes about 3-4 hours to visit the two attractions.

Okayama Korakuen, one of Japan's three great gardens, is a must-visit spot when traveling to Okayama. My first encounter with Korakuen was during a road trip from Hiroshima to Kyoto, making a special stop in Okayama City to explore this strolling garden that has existed since the Edo period. Korakuen spans a vast area of 133,000 square meters, and its natural beauty throughout the changing seasons is simply breathtaking. The garden features ponds, artificial hills, plum groves, and tea fields, enhancing its natural charm. The historical buildings from the Edo period, such as Enyo-tei, Renchi-ken, Yuishin-zan, Ryuten, and Hananoike, also attract many visitors. Korakuen boasts blooming flowers all year round. In winter, you can see plum blossoms; in spring, Yoshino cherry blossoms, azaleas, peonies, and peonies; and there are even chrysanthemum displays with flowers as big as faces, which are quite impressive. Korakuen is just a bridge away from Okayama Castle, and you can enjoy a distant view of this beautiful castle. You can buy a combo ticket to visit both, with Korakuen's entrance fee at ¥500 and the combo ticket with Okayama Castle at ¥720, which is quite a bargain.

#1月好去地方2025 First visit to Okayama-Momotaro's hometown, less than an hour by Shinkansen from downtown Osaka (tourists can buy tickets for the Sanyo Shinkansen, which is slightly cheaper! Then go to the station to exchange, very convenient!) The pace is not fast (suitable for friends who like to go to the countryside), but the function of Okayama Station is not bad, it has everything you need, it is easy to visit and delicious😋 The environment of the must-visit Okayama Castle is great👍🏻The coffee shop inside is delicious! (Highly recommend the Okayama Free Pass exchange, ticket + sundae) Very satisfying! The yakiniku restaurant near the station is really delicious. My 60-year-old mother enjoyed the meal very much. It was worth the trip.

Korakuen, Kairakuen in Mito, and Kenrokuen in Kanazawa are known as the three great gardens of Japan. Unlike other Japanese gardens, Korakuen was the first garden to plant large areas of lawn. The highlight of the garden is the artificial mountain, Yuishinzan, in the center of the garden. *️⃣ The Great Torii (meaning the gate to the shrine), the symbol of Miyajima, was built in 1875 and is the 8th reconstruction since the Heian period. The vermilion Great Torii is made of unprocessed camphor wood, about 16 meters high, and the upper beam is 24 meters long. It stands on the vast blue waves of the Seto Inland Sea by its own weight, showing its unique majesty. *️⃣ Kurashiki in Okayama is a famous historical street in Okayama Prefecture, with well-preserved Edo period buildings, white-walled and black-tiled warehouses, and willow-shaded canals, full of retro style. You can take a boat tour of the canal, stroll along the cobblestone streets, and visit specialty shops and cafes.

The office is about 130m to the right after exiting the east exit where the Momotaro statue is. The road in front is not one-way, but there is an AEON nearby, so it can get crowded depending on the time of day. When returning the car, please enter the space in the sixth photo from the beginning. It is close to the station, so it is recommended if you are renting a car at Okayama Station. ✱----------------------------------------------- [Name] JR Station Rental Car Okayama Station Office [Location] 1-1-201 Ekimotocho, Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture [Access] 130m to the right after exiting the east exit of Okayama Station, under the Shinkansen overpass -----------------------------------------------✱ #Rental Car Information #Okayama #Station Rental Car #Domestic Travel #Tourism

Okayama Takashimaya in front of Okayama Station was designed by the famous Japanese architect Murano Togo. It has two underground floors and eight above-ground floors, a total of ten floors of comfortable and bright shopping space. The red ceiling on the first floor exterior wall is quite eye-catching. Directly connected to the underground shopping street of JR Okayama Station, it is about a 3-minute walk away. The products inside are diverse, but the style is very unique and nostalgic I feel like I've returned to the old days. The nearby Oki no Shima Ramen is a ramen restaurant recommended by many people. It is located near the back door of Takashimaya and specializes in flying fish soy sauce soup and rich shellfish soup, which is really delicious.

#100WAYS TO TRAVEL #Japan #Okayama #Okayama Castle Looking back on my 18-day solo trip to Japan in 2022 when the epidemic was just lifted After going to Kurashiki in the morning, I came to Okayama. The time I arrived was too late, close to the evening, and I couldn't enter Okayama Castle. I originally wanted to go to Okayama Korakuen, which was also closed, so I left some regrets to make up for it later😜 There is a streetcar in Okayama that you can take. Get off at the castle station and walk for ten minutes to Okayama Castle. The appearance of Okayama Castle is really beautiful. The outer walls are black partitions, giving Okayama Castle the character of a "Uro Castle" title.

#Unpopular Attractions Okayama Korakuen is a beautiful and unpopular tourist attraction with few tourists. It was originally one of the three famous gardens in Japan and was rated as a three-star attraction in the Japanese Michelin Green Guide. Enyo-tei is an important building in Korakuen and was the residence of the Okayama domain lord when he visited the garden. The wide lawn allows visitors to have a panoramic view at a glance. This simplicity and plainness can make people feel calm and open-minded. The winding waterways in the garden are sometimes gurgling streams and sometimes wide rivers. Combined with the winding paths and lush green lawns, they present a unique beauty. Minoshima, Nakanoshima and Sarishima in Sawanoike each have their own characteristics, and Mt. Weishin gives the plain Korakuen a sense of three-dimensionality. The koi fish in front of Lianchixuan add a touch of elegance. #100TravelWays #OkayamaTravel #JapanTravel

I took the train from Okayama Station to Kibitsu Station. Kibitsu Station is an unmanned station that evokes a sense of nostalgia. Since there are few trains heading back to Okayama, I was careful not to miss the train, but I ended up missing it. The reason was that the platforms for the inbound and outbound lines are directly opposite each other, but I didn't realize they were different boarding areas. It was quite a shock because it wasn't a short walk between the platforms. The next train from Kibitsu Station to Okayama Station was about an hour later. If you plan to visit Kibitsu Shrine, please be aware of this. ✱----------------------------------------------- Name: Kibitsu Station Location: 1054-2 Kibitsu, Kita-ku, Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture Note: Unmanned station Date of Visit: September 2024 -----------------------------------------------✱

During our holiday, we visited Okayama in Japan, and the most famous attraction in Okayama is, of course, our main focus today - Okayama Castle. Okayama Castle was built by Ukita Hideie during Japan's Sengoku period and is one of Japan's Top 100 Castles. Its black exterior has earned it the nicknames 'Crow Castle' or 'Golden Crow Castle.' From JR Okayama Station, you can take a tram for a few stops to reach the castle. After passing through a park, you can see Okayama Castle from a distance. The closer you get along the riverside, the more magnificent it appears. Inside, there are preserved artifacts, exquisite souvenirs, and delicious sweets. You can even dress up as a lord or princess. Many people pass through Okayama, so if you have time next time, take a stroll here and enjoy its unique charm.

As one of Japan's three great gardens, Okayama Korakuen stands alongside Kanazawa's Kenrokuen and Mito's Kairakuen, enjoying nationwide fame. Located next to Okayama Castle, the garden spans 13 hectares and showcases the typical 'strolling garden' design of the Edo period. Built in 1700 by Ikeda Tsunamasa, the second lord of the Okayama Domain, this historic garden was not only a place for noble leisure but has also become a paradise for today's travelers. 🚩 Spacious and Comfortable Strolling Experience Upon entering Korakuen, the vastness of the garden is immediately striking. Unlike typical Japanese gardens, Korakuen's open spaces provide a sense of comfort and freedom. Walking along the winding stone paths, surrounded by lush lawns, ponds, and flowers, one can't help but slow down and take a deep breath of the fragrant air. Every element in the garden seems meticulously arranged, from the small bridges and flowing water to the scattered stone lanterns, all exuding a simple yet elegant charm. 👍 Unique Aesthetic of Garden Landscaping Korakuen's garden landscaping is unique, with every detail showcasing exquisite craftsmanship. The most notable feature is the 'Daisen Pond,' whose mirror-like surface reflects the sky and surrounding scenery, creating a picturesque view. In the center of the pond is a 'small mountain island' surrounded by pine trees, resembling a floating island from afar. Whether strolling along the pond or climbing the small hill for a panoramic view, one can feel the designer's ultimate pursuit of natural beauty. Additionally, the garden features an artificial hill called 'Yuishinzan,' which offers a panoramic view of Korakuen and a distant view of Okayama Castle. In spring, the blooming cherry blossoms and fresh greenery add a touch of romance to the garden. The hydrangeas in summer, the autumn leaves, and the winter snow each offer a different charm with every visit. 🎉 Special Night Openings: A Different Kind of Charm For a completely different experience, visiting Korakuen at night is a must. During specific periods, the garden opens for night visits, with lights illuminating every corner, creating a starry effect. The moonlight and lights reflect on the tranquil pond, creating a dreamy atmosphere. The cool night breeze adds a sense of peace and tranquility, making the experience even more serene. The 'Daisen Pond' is particularly enchanting at night, with the starry reflections making it even more mesmerizing. The lanterns and stone sculptures in the garden appear more ancient and elegant under the soft lighting, giving a sense of time travel. Strolling with family or friends in such an atmosphere is an unforgettable experience. 📍 The Enchanting Beauty of Korakuen Okayama Korakuen, whether by day or night, attracts countless visitors with its unique scenery. The vast grounds, exquisite garden landscaping, and enchanting night atmosphere are all captivating. It's not only a great place for photography but also a serene spot to relax and enjoy nature. Every corner is filled with poetry and beauty, making it feel like stepping into a living museum of traditional Japanese culture. Don't miss this gem, one of Japan's three great gardens, on your next visit to Okayama. 🔴 Transportation Tips: Accessible by bus, tram, or taxi 🟠 Must-Visit Spots: Korakuen, Okayama Castle 🟡 Recommended Hotels: Okayama Koraku Hotel 🟢 Must-Try Foods: Garden teahouse, ramen, vegetable curry 🔵 Shopping Guide: Sweets, fruit products

Located in 🍑Momotaro-dori, opposite Okayama JR Station, about a 5-minute walk from the station, the hotel is located on the 6th and 7th floors of the shopping mall, with its own elevator, which is very convenient; 🏢The hotel is divided into two types of accommodation, including traditional double rooms and capsule rooms suitable for solo travelers. This time I stayed in a capsule room, which was rare to be a real room, not a 💊pill capsule. The space is large and can be opened 20 inches. There is a locked locker in the room, which is very safe. There is also a separate area card for entry and exit, so there is no need to worry about non-capsule guests entering by mistake; there is also a small bar in the hotel lobby, with free alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks 🍷 for guests every day 😍 The lobby also has considerate supplies such as facial cleanser, lotion, rubber bands, etc. for guests to use, but in fact, the public toilets and bathrooms are well stocked, so it is very convenient 👍🏻 In terms of facilities, there is a small comic book pavilion in the room, a drink machine in the public space, a small fitness room, a restaurant, and a hot spring bath. 💰 For more than 200 yuan, you can have comfortable accommodation and a large bath, which is really worth it😍 In addition, you can purchase breakfast, which is very rich, with many Western and Japanese food choices, and even Okayama authentic food😋 There are many different restaurants in the shopping mall and shopping street downstairs, and there is also a large supermarket. It is really convenient. On rainy days, you can walk to the station street through the mall, and you don’t have to worry about the rain 😁 #JapanHotel #Okayama #CapsuleHotel

Okayama 𓂃 𓈒𓏸 Cafe Rirei, Higashiune, Minami Ward, Okayama City I visited Cafe Rirere, which is located in the middle of a rice field that I've always wanted to visit. I was lucky to get a reservation because I had heard that it was difficult to make a reservation.🤞🏻 I'm also grateful to my friend who accompanied me.🥲🍃 The rural scenery captured by the large window looks like a painting in a frame.🖼 The interior of the store, which was renovated from an old house, is stylish.✔︎Seasonal dessert plate, coffee jelly, homemade ice cream, cheese terrine (half), chocolate terrine (half), figs (2 types), sable.✔︎Cafe au lait. Dessert plate, ¥1000 for this volume is a bargain.🐈 In Tokyo, it would probably be around ¥1800.☜ The seasonal parfaits seem to be popular too.🍴 You can purchase takeout baked goods and other items without making a reservation.◎ There were so many varieties that I couldn't decide which one to get.🥺 The parking lot is small, so please only go with one car per group.🚗 The cafe has a three-part system.
