    プラネタリウムがリニューアルをしたそうで、かなり集客アップしていると 新聞で読みました。 入場料が500円にアップしていますが、65歳以上は無料とのこと。 新しくなって見ごたえがあると友人とその孫が言ってました。 私たちは4月に一度行きましたが、月曜日は休館日でした。 平日は、午後の上映しかしていないようなので、 次回はきちんと調べてから伺います。

Okayama Areas

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.
