The Experience

Together with a guide, explore the Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter, which retains its appearance from 400 years ago, while unraveling its history and culture. Then, cycle upstream along the Kurashiki River towards the Sakazu Reservoir. In the past, the Kurashiki River resembled a canal, with a wide riverbed where Takasebune boats used to travel back and forth. Currently, part of the waterway flows underground as a culvert (ankyo). You will experience both the past and present by viewing materials that showcase the remnants of the era. The destination, the Sakazu Reservoir, is about 3 kilometers away. Along the way, you will encounter many points of interest, including locations that were once entertainment districts, places that highlight Kurashiki as a transportation hub, and sites where spinning mills once stood. ★This activity involves the use of bicycles. Children are welcome to participate, but it is recommended that they be 140cm or taller. ★Our guide is a joy to explore with!
