Kurashiki
Kurashiki City · Japan
Kurashiki's historic canal district — lined with white-walled merchant storehouses dating to the Edo period — is one of the most photographed streetscapes in western Japan. The city in Okayama Prefecture is also known for the Seto Ohashi Bridge, which links Honshu and Shikoku, and sits at the foot of Mt. Tsurugata. The preserved Bikan Historical Quarter draws visitors for its waterside walkways, cafés, and galleries housed in converted warehouses.
