2023-02-17

Photography is allowed not only on the exterior but also anywhere inside the villa, I would like to introduce two locations that are irresistible to photography enthusiasts: ” KURASHIKI IVY SQUARE” and “OHARA HOUSE KATALYZER (Former Ohara Family Residence)”.

 

First, you can enjoy the beauty of Kurashiki houses and storehouses and Japanese gardens at OHARA HOUSE KATALYZER (Former Ohara Family Residence).

A fun way to learn about “the Ohara family” is through” the Downpour of Words”.

 

As I was tired on the weekend after working hard during the week, the sentence “Be strong ” was the first thing that caught my attention in the art, which can be experienced as an entire space as a work of art. I felt encouraged and decided to do my best again tomorrow.

 

*Admission fee (tax included) Adults 500 yen

 

If you go further in, you can see a separate tatami room and a garden full of greenery.

This is also a very beautiful and favorite space for me as a tea ceremony learner! It’s a really quiet moment that I can sit freely and feel relaxed!

The history is written on the walls! I can’t read much kanji, but the pictures look great(lol).

 

The last place we visited was Kurashiki Ivy Square, one of the major attractions of Kurashiki tourism.

Kurashiki Ivy Square really stands out with its red walls, and the restaurant is also very stylish.

Lots of stores are nearby! White and old walls, surrounded by nature, I almost forgot the flow of time!

When I come to Kurashiki where I sometimes feel free from my busy daily life, I feel really relaxed and healed! With so many stores and tourist attractions, I never get tired of Kurashiki, no matter how many times I visit! I will come back to Kurashiki again and again!

 

Tourists and business travelers alike will have unforgettable time to enjoy Kurashiki in a short time, so if you ever get a chance to come to Okayama, come to Kurashiki!
