Location information
- Name
- Kurashiki Beauty Area
- Address
- Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture
- Description
- The rows of willow trees gently swaying in the wind, along with the beautiful contrast of white and namako walls casting their reflections on the Kurashiki River, effectively preserve the beauty of traditional Japanese architecture. This area prospered as a rice distribution center during the Edo period (1603–1868), and one can still reminisce about those times through the storehouses and other such buildings. Locally, this area is referred to as the "Bikan District" and is home to cultural facilities such as the Ohara Museum of Art, which houses world-renowned paintings, as well as folk art museums, archaeological museums, and local toy museums.
