Okayama

Early Sunday morning in Okayama was quiet. We caught the local tram to the Korakuen garden. Food stalls were offering a variety of delicacies along the riverbank. The change to autumn colours has only just started in this part of Japan so the garden is not as colourful as it will be in a couple of weeks.

There is a reconstructed castle overlooking the garden. The original castle was destroyed in a bombing raid in WW2 but a replica has been built on the site. There are some more authentic buildings scattered around the garden such as this tea house.
