Coisas para fazer em Okayama

The driver was very kind. We originally didn't know we would pass a huge torii gate on the way, but she specially told us about it. Luckily, we turned to take photos, otherwise we would have almost missed an interesting attraction! 😆

I exchanged three travel passes: Kurashiki, Okayama Castle, and Okayama Ichibangai. I didn't exchange the Korakuen Garden pass because it was too hot to walk that day. For Kurashiki, remember to exchange it at the tourist information center to the right after exiting the station. For Okayama Castle, you can exchange it directly at the ticket counter and for ice cream on the first floor. For the Ichibangai pass, you need to exchange it at the information desk. Buying shoes at ABC and getting two 3,000 yen discounts at once is very cost-effective.

This historic castle, located in the heart of Okayama City, is also known as "Crow Castle." Its interior has been renovated into a museum, housing artifacts from the Sengoku period. From the top floor of the main keep, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the city, the moat, and Korakuen Garden.
