Okayama Asahikawa Sightseeing Cruise Karasugi Water Boat

Japan, 703-8257 1-6 Korakuen, Kita-ku, Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture (Platform: Hekisuien)

This is a cruise that overlooks Okayama Korauen Garden and Okayama Castle from the Asahi River, which flows through the center of Okayama City. Legend has it that during the Edo period, lords would travel by boat from the castle to the gardens, so it is popular among tourists because they can experience the feeling of being a lord at that time. You can look up at the castle's stone walls and bridges from the surface of the Asahikawa river, admire the seasonal scenery, and enjoy the majestic scenery that Okayama is proud of in an unusual location.
