Momotarou-no-Karakuri-Hakubutsukan

Reviewed By CelynT - Luzon, Philippines

This is one of my favorite places in Kurashiki. The museum has a lot of interactive activities related to Momotaro. Oh, if you haven't experienced a Japanese haunted house, try visiting this place because they have one on the second floor. The staff are nice, too. Knowing that we were foreigners, they guided us how to experience the activities ln the first floor.

Kurashiki Ekimae Tourist Information Center

Reviewed By Rumples - Tucson, United States

We came to Kurashiki by train from Okayama so looked for a tourist information office nearby. This one proved to be just to the right after exiting the station and was well marked. Only one woman sat at the desk. She greeted us with a nice smile, spoke excellent English and proved to be extremely helpful. All questions that we raised got answered to our satisfaction, and she gave us maps and brochures in English. The racks held additional material in English as well as other languages. We wanted to explore the Kurashiki Bikan Historical Area, so she gave us an excellent walking map, along with careful instructions on how to get there on foot. For those with luggage, this center has lockers. It also offers Wi-Fi.
