Travel to Okayama, Japan + Why You Should Consider Exploring This Lesser-Visited Japanese City

from World Wide Honeymoon Travel Podcast · host Kat and Chris Butler

"Why are you going to Okayama?" To be fair, we got this question more than once while traveling around Japan. I get it. It's not really a tourist hot spot like Tokyo, Kyoto, or Osaka. So when we told people where we were going, there were certainly a few raised eyebrows. But hear us out: Okayama is incredible! The city has enough things to do on its own like Okayama Castle, Korakuen Garden, and Kurashiki nearby! AND It's a top-notch base for day trips to Hiroshima, Naoshima Art Island, Himeji, and more! So in this episode, we're discussing the top things to do in Okayama Japan, best day trips from Okayama, and why we chose this lesser known city to spend 4 nights during our 2 week trip to Japan.   Relevant Links (may contain affiliate links, meaning if you make a purchase through these links, we earn a small commission-at no additional cost to you!): -Okayama Hotel (Koraku Hotel): https://booking.stay22.com/worldwidehoneymoon/PH-cUT2oZz -Fat Bear Week: https://explore.org/fat-bear-week -Donate to The Otis Fund for Katmai National Park: https://katmaiconservancy.org/donate   Traveling to France?
