Day 6 – Part 1: Quiet Dawn in Kurashiki

We started the day early and arrived in Kurashiki around 06:30, just in time for sunrise. The historic Bikan district was completely empty—no tourists, no shops open, just us and the soft morning light. The canal was perfectly still, giving us beautiful reflections of the willow trees and old storehouses all to ourselves.

We wandered through the silent streets, stopping at several temples and enjoying the rare feeling of having an entire town waking up slowly around us. Before leaving, we visited the Former Ohara Residence, a beautifully preserved traditional house with gardens that offered a glimpse into Kurashiki’s cultural past.

After a peaceful and very photogenic morning, we headed back to Okayama for some rest.Baca lagi
