Asian Resort Spa Seare
This spa resort is open 24 hours a day on weekends and offers natural hot springs. The water, which comes from 1,000 meters underground, is rich in salt and has an excellent moisturizing effect, warming the body from the core and gently soothing the fatigue of travel. Towels and other items are available for rent (additional fee required), so you can come empty-handed.
This place is perfect not just for families, but also for trips with your best friends. Enjoy the facilities and make some wonderful memories together!

Tsuyama Castle
Its predecessor was Tsuruyama Castle, built by Yamana Tadamasa in 1441 and later abandoned during the Onin and Bunmei Wars. Mori Tadamasa, the younger brother of Mori Ranmaru, who was known as a close aide to Oda Nobunaga, later renamed Tsuruyama as Tsuyama and began constructing a new castle. Completed over 13 years beginning in 1604, this magnificent castle is considered one of Japan's three great hilltop castles.
Compared to the heavy beauty of Matsuyama Castle with its black walls and white eaves, I actually prefer Tsuyama Castle's white buildings accented by just a touch of black on the eaves. That lighter, more delicate look is really captivating!

Okayama Korakuen Garden
This daimyō garden was commissioned by Ikeda Tsunamasa, lord of the Okayama Domain, as a place of relaxation and was largely completed in 1700. During Tsunamasa’s time, the garden was designed to be viewed from rooms overlooking the grounds. Its landscape later evolved in response to changing social conditions and the preferences of successive lords, gradually becoming more suitable for strolling as streams, ponds, and other features were added.
One of Japan's top three gardens—it's a must-see for anyone who loves gardening or landscape design!
