Walk the town, at your own pace

Walk the town, at your own pace

White walls, tiled roofs and storehouses trace Kurashiki’s past as a trading town. Wander from the canal into Hon-machi and Higashi-machi, where daily life continues among the historic buildings. Take time to notice a doorway, a small shop or the changing light on a familiar street. Our Journal offers a way into the town’s story before you set out.

The woven rush curtain at Yoruya’s entrance carries a connection to Kurashiki’s long tradition of working with igusa. Wooden trays and glassware in the rooms bring the work of Okayama’s makers into daily use. Look closely, hold an object in your hands, and discover the thought behind its shape. Meet some of the makers through the conversations in our Journal.

A meal can be another way to discover a place. Yoruya’s seasonal Japanese cooking draws on ingredients from Okayama and the Seto Inland Sea, with a counter that brings the work of the kitchen close. Explore our dining page to learn about the meals offered with a stay and dinner reservations.
