Okayama Korakuen

Quite disappointing. We were told this was supposed to be one of the three best gardens in Japan. We were here in February and the garden was very dull. We visited plenty of other gardens that were in much better shape and cheaper. Probably a lot better during other seasons but they still charged full price.

Beautiful Japanese garden even in winter and well worth the ticket price of 410 yen. Very neat and well-maintained, and in some parts you can also see Okayama Castle in the background. A full walking loop of the gardens should take around 40 minutes to an hour. There are plenty of bathrooms inside, as well as souvenir shops and some food.

A lovely garden to walk around and well worth a visit if you're in Okayama! Everything is very neat and pretty, and the garden is quite big so it doesn't feel crowded. I think you can buy a combined ticket for the garden and Okayama Castle which seems like a good deal.

Had an early morning walk around here,was very quite and an easy way to spend 2/3 hours just strolling about. Plenty of different areas to visit within the gardnen with ice cream coffee shops etc around to take a break at. Would recommend going in the morning as when I was leaving it was getting busier.

Definitely must see! Great place to enjoy a picnic and photographer's paradise. Guided tours available. Staff is very polite, and even explained the bus protocol after some confusion. The grounds are well maintained and absolutely amazing. Calendars available at front full of day and night events. Some areas are not wheelchair accessible, but the majority of the park is flat and gravel
