Korakuen – Okayama, Japan

This garden is another member of 日本三名園 Nihon Sanmeien, Three Great Gardens of Japan. The other 2 gardens are: Kairakuen of Mito and Kenrokuen of Kanazawa. Unlike my epic weather failed Kairakuen visit, this time, it was only cloudy and did not rain. LOL Celebration! hahaThis beautiful park was a 25min stroll from the Okayama station. Simply beautiful.

Can see the Okayama castle in a distance. This was my view from my lunch spot 😀

I actually did this as a stop over thing. I really did not want to spend lunch time in the train. What’s not to like about spending lunch time in a beautiful park? So glad that I did it 😀 I did not feed the beer to the Koi fishes, but they’re very attracted to it LOL

 

Inside the park there’re snacks / small eat shops. Any hungry person can just waltz into the park and have a great time without any prep 😉
