    Okayama Pref. Okayamashi Kita-ku Kourakuen 1-5
    Here, the cultural heritage of Okayama Prefecture from primitive through modern times is displayed in an easy to understand manner. In addition to the main attraction, the Akakawa Odoshi yoroi red leathered armor, a national treasure, valuable cultural artifacts are preserved and displayed.

    Okayama Pref. Okayamashi Kita-ku Nishihanajiri 1325-3
    "This museum is located approximately a 20-minute drive from the west exit of JR Okayama Station. It is situated on the southern side of Mt. Kibi-nonakayama, one of the famous mountains appeared in ""The Pillow Book"". As a base for the protection and preservation of buried cultural properties of the prefecture, about 400 excavated items such as Jomon pottery and Yayoi pottery are displayed regularly. It regularly carries out temporary exhibitions, and you can learn more about the history of the local area from the exhibits and panel explanations."

    展示室は小規模ながら、出土品を選りすぐり、コンパクトに縄文時代から中世までの岡山県の歴史を概観できるように工夫してあります。企画展も定期的にやっています。先の口コミの情報は正確ではなく、土日も基本的に開いているようです。

    This museum located in Ashimori, Okayama City is adjacent to the Okayama prefecturally designated Place of Scenic Beauty Omizuen/Ginpukaku, about 4 kilometers from JR Ashimori Station. It primarily displays artifacts and artworks related to the Ashimori Domain and the Kinoshita lords of the domain. You can also see artifacts and old texts related to important locals like Dutch scholar and physician Ogata Koan, or poet Kinoshita Rigen. They also have excavated items like Jomon Period pottery, ironware, and stone monuments on display and in panels. The museum is quite nice for how closely it stays to local topics. You can tour for free, but you must make reservations in advance with the curator's office.

Overshadowed by Hiroshima to the west and the Kansai region to the east, Okayama is an easy spot to miss but a nature-rich gem where the Seto Inland Sea laps at its toes and peach and grape farms complete its interior. One of Japan’s Three Great Gardens, Koraku-en in Okayama city is well worth a visit before progressing to Kurashiki, where preserved wooden Edo buildings line the picturesque canal.
