[Beautiful white-walled streets with a hint of history and art] Kurashiki Bikan Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter where you can enjoy quaint scenery, such as white-walled storehouses, namako walls, and rows of willow trees. The streets created by traditional buildings and the retro-modern scenery along the Kurashiki continue to fascinate people from all over the world. Lined with stylish shops selling Kurashiki brands such as " Kurashiki Hanpu" and "Kurashiki Denim ," as well as cafes renovated from traditional townhouses, the area is bustling with tourists all year round. There are also many cultural facilities such as the " Ohara Museum of Art " and "Ivy Square," so you won't get bored even if you spend the whole day exploring the area.
