Completed in 1700, Okayama Korakuen was designed to be an entertainment garden for important guests during the Edo Period. It is one of the few historic gardens that has minimal modification and was designated as a Special Scenic Location in Japan in 1952. Conveniently located in Okayama city near the castle, Okayama Korakuen is one of the three more beautiful gardens in Japan, offering amazing scenic view in different seasons. It is one of the best places to visit for autumn foliage in middle to late November.
