Experience one of Japan's finest landscaped gardens at Okayama Korakuen Garden, dating back to the 18th century. The site features traditional landscaping, streams, paths, a large pond, and hilltop lookout, but remains best known for its sprawling lawns. The garden additionally features views of the neighboring Okayama Castle. Through the years, the estate has been damaged by flooding and war, but historically accurate restoration returned it to its former glory after World War II.

Spectacular scenery. I enjoyed my visit here so much. We stayed here for 2 months and I enjoyed every single day.

Awesome park and garden with tons to explore. Tickets are only ¥440 for adults. There are a few tea houses to relax at and eat. There's a giant koi pond that's really nice to see in person. Overall worth the price and visit if you're in the area.

Definitely a good place to unwind or find peace of mind... it'd be better if you come here on week days not weekends or holidays... having too many people may make you not fully enjoy your experience here...
